The CST (CTC1–STN1–TEN1) complex mediates critical functions in maintaining telomere DNA and overcoming genome-wide replication stress. A conserved biochemical function of the CST complex is its primase-Pol α (PP) stimulatory activity. In this report, we demonstrate the ability of purified human STN1 alone to promote PP activity in vitro. We show that this regulation is mediated primarily by the N-terminal OB fold of STN1, but does not require the DNA-binding activity of this domain. Rather, we observed a strong correlation between the PP-stimulatory activity of STN1 variants and their abilities to bind POLA2. Remarkably, the main binding target of STN1 in POLA2 is the latter's central OB fold domain. In the substrate-free structure of PP, this domain is positioned so as to block nucleic acid entry to the Pol α active site. Thus the STN1–POLA2 interaction may promote the necessary conformational change for nucleic acid delivery to Pol α and subsequent DNA synthesis. A disease-causing mutation in human STN1 engenders a selective defect in POLA2-binding and PP stimulation, indicating that these activities are critical for the in vivo function of STN1. Our findings have implications for the molecular mechanisms of PP, STN1 and STN1-related molecular pathology.
