NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes the 58 kilodalton subunit of DNA primase, an enzyme that plays a key role in the replication of DNA. The encoded protein forms a heterodimer with a 49 kilodalton subunit. This heterodimer functions as a DNA-directed RNA polymerase to synthesize small RNA primers that are used to create Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand of the DNA. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. This gene has a related pseudogene, which is also present on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]
Uniprot Description
PRI2: synthesizes small RNA primers for the Okazaki fragments made during discontinuous DNA replication. The replication of DNA is carried out by a complex chromosomal replication apparatus, in which DNA polymerase alpha and primase are two key enzymatic components.

Product Notes
The Rat Prim2 prim2 (Catalog #AAA763274) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA763274 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat Prim2. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "DNA primase large subunit, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
