    Summary
    Predicted to enable 4 iron, 4 sulfur cluster binding activity; DNA binding activity; and metal ion binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of nematode male tail tip morphogenesis. Predicted to be part of alpha DNA polymerase:primase complex. Orthologous to human PRIM2 (DNA primase subunit 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
