There are two types of priming reaction in E. coli: The oriC system, named for the bacterial origin, basically involves the association of the DnaG primase with the protein

complex at the replication fork.

In proteins, there are three types of chromophores relevant for UV/Vis spectroscopy:

peptide bonds (amide bond);

certain amino acid side chains (mainly tryptophan and tyrosine); and

certain prosthetic groups and coenzymes (e.g. porphyrine groups such as in haem).
