ATPase cycle and DNA unwinding kinetics of RecG helicase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The superfamily 2 bacterial helicase, RecG, is a monomeric enzyme with a role in DNA repair by reversing stalled replication forks. The helicase must act specifically and rapidly to prevent replication fork collapse. We have shown that RecG binds tightly

The roles of RNA helicases in DNA damage repair and tumorigenesis reveal precision therapeutic strategies.

open access: yesCancer Research, 2022
DEAD-box RNA helicases belong to a large group of RNA processing factors and play vital roles unwinding RNA helices and in ribosomal RNA biogenesis. Emerging evidence indicates that RNA helicases are associated with genome stability, yet the mechanisms ...

Regulation of DEAH-box RNA helicases by G-patch proteins

open access: yesBiological chemistry, 2021
RNA helicases of the DEAH/RHA family form a large and conserved class of enzymes that remodel RNA protein complexes (RNPs) by translocating along the RNA.

Helicase: A genetic tool for providing stress tolerance in plants

open access: yesPlant Stress, 2023
Alteration of stress (abiotic and biotic) constitutes one of the major problems for normal plants health. In the present scenario, new molecular tools are broadly utilized to improve stress tolerance and high-yielding crop plants.

RNA Chaperones, RNA Annealers and RNA Helicases [PDF]

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2007
RNA molecules face difficulties when folding into their native structures. In the cell, proteins can assist RNAs in reaching their functionally active states by binding and stabilizing a specific structure or, in a quite opposite way, by interacting in a non-specific manner. These proteins can either facilitate RNA-RNA interactions in a reaction termed

Deciphering the role of helicases and translocases: A multifunctional gene family safeguarding plants from diverse environmental adversities

open access: yesCurrent Plant Biology, 2021
Helicases and translocases comprise one of the largest and highly conserved gene families in eukaryotic organisms, including plant. Members of this gene family are involved in a plethora of molecular processes related to DNA and RNA metabolism that are ...

RNA helicases in splicing [PDF]

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2013
In eukaryotic cells, introns are spliced from pre-mRNAs by the spliceosome. Both the composition and the structure of the spliceosome are highly dynamic, and eight DExD/H RNA helicases play essential roles in controlling conformational rearrangements. There is evidence that the various helicases are functionally and physically connected with each other

The RNA helicase database [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2010
RNA helicases are ubiquitous and essential enzymes that function in nearly all aspects of RNA metabolism. The RNA helicase database (www.rnahelicase.org) integrates the wealth of accumulating information on RNA helicases in a readily accessible format.

DEAD-Box Helicases: Sensors, Regulators, and Effectors for Antiviral Defense

open access: yesViruses, 2020
DEAD-box helicases are a large family of conserved RNA-binding proteins that belong to the broader group of cellular DExD/H helicases. Members of the DEAD-box helicase family have roles throughout cellular RNA metabolism from biogenesis to decay ...
