Arabidopsis RecQl4A suppresses homologous recombination and modulates DNA damage responses [PDF]
The DNA damage response and DNA recombination are two interrelated mechanisms involved in maintaining the integrity of the genome, but in plants they are poorly understood.

Dynamics and Conformations of a Full-Length CRESS-DNA Replicase
Circular Rep-encoding single-stranded DNA (CRESS-DNA) viruses encode for a Replicase (Rep) that is essential for viral replication. Rep is a helicase with three domains: an endonuclease, an oligomeric, and an ATPase domain (ED, OD, and AD).

Werner syndrome helicase is a selective vulnerability of microsatellite instability-high tumor cells
Targeted cancer therapy is based on exploiting selective dependencies of tumor cells. By leveraging recent large-scale genomic profiling and functional screening of cancer cell lines we identified Werner syndrome helicase (WRN) as a novel specific ...

Homologous Recombination: To Fork and Beyond [PDF]
Accurate completion of genome duplication is threatened by multiple factors that hamper the advance and stability of the replication forks. Cells need to tolerate many of these blocking lesions to timely complete DNA replication, postponing their repair ...

Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) encodes six highly conserved core replication proteins essential for the viral lytic DNA synthesis, including ORF6 (single-stranded DNA-binding protein), ORF9 (DNA polymerase), ORF40/41 (primase-associated ...

The mechanism of RNA duplex recognition and unwinding by DEAD-box helicase DDX3X
DEAD-box helicases (DDXs) regulate RNA processing and metabolism by unwinding short double-stranded (ds) RNAs. Sharing a helicase core composed of two RecA-like domains (D1D2), DDXs function in an ATP-dependent, non-processive manner.

West Nile virus (WNV) is a neurotropic flavivirus that can cause encephalitis in mammalian and avian hosts. In America, the virulent WNV strain (NY99) is causing yearly outbreaks of encephalitis in humans and horses, while in Australia the less virulent ...

Role of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe F-box DNA helicase in processing recombination intermediates. [PDF]
In an effort to identify novel genes involved in recombination repair, we isolated fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutants sensitive to methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) and a synthetic lethal with rad2.

Here, Song et al. show that the DEAD-box RNA helicase DDX21 efficiently unwinds RNA/DNA hybrids (R loops) in vivo and in vitro and prevents DNA damage. Their findings reveal a novel mechanism by which accumulation of R loops by DDX21 depletion leads to ...

Background: The 2C protein of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), a member of helicase superfamily 3 (SF3), drives viral genome replication and serves as a critical target for antiviral drug development. Methods: A fluorescence resonance energy transfer
