Source: NCBI Gene (ID 5422)
Symbol: POLA1
Full name: DNA polymerase alpha 1, catalytic subunit
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: NSX; POLA; VEODS; p180
Summary: This gene encodes the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase, which together with a regulatory and two primase subunits, forms the DNA polymerase alpha complex. The catalytic subunit plays an essential role in the initiation of DNA replication. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
