    Summary
    Enables DNA-directed DNA polymerase activity. Involved in DNA replication initiation and DNA replication, synthesis of primer. Acts upstream of or within DNA replication. Located in nucleus. Part of alpha DNA polymerase:primase complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Van Esch-O'Driscoll syndrome and X-linked reticulate pigmentary disorder. Orthologous to human POLA1 (DNA polymerase alpha 1, catalytic subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
