2.7.7.B16 dNTP + n dNTP the p41-p46 primase preferentially uses dNTPs compared to NTPs. DNA strand synthesis is stimulated by the addition of NTPs or by addition of ATP to the same level. ATP is the preferable initiating nucleotide for the p41-p46 complex Pyrococcus furiosus dN(pdN)n + n diphosphate

2.7.7.B16 NTP + n NTP the p41-p46 primase preferentially uses dNTPs compared to NTPs. The primase complex synthesizes RNA segments only when NTPs but not dNTPs are added as the substrates. When both dNTPs and NTPs exist at equal concentrations, no RNA products are observed. ATP is the preferable initiating nucleotide for the p41-p46 complex Pyrococcus furiosus N(pN)n + n diphosphate
