Dna2 Helicase/Nuclease Causes Replicative Fork Stalling and Double-strand Breaks in the Ribosomal DNA of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
We have proposed that faulty processing of arrested replication forks leads to increases in recombination and chromosome instability in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and contributes to the shortened lifespan of dna2 mutants. Now we use the ribosomal DNA locus,

The emerging role of DEAD/H-box helicases in hepatitis B virus infection
DEAD/H-box helicases are an essential protein family with a conserved motif containing unique amino acid sequences (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp/His). Current evidence indicates that DEAD/H-box helicases regulate RNA metabolism and innate immune responses.

Machines on Genes: Enzymes that Make, Break and Move DNA and RNA [PDF]
As the vital information repositories of the cell, the nucleic acids DNA and RNA pose many challenges as enzyme substrates. To produce, maintain and repair DNA and RNA, and to extract the genetic information that they encode, a battery of remarkable ...

Structural Basis of DEAH/RHA Helicase Activity
DEAH/RHA helicases are members of a large group of proteins collectively termed DExH-box, which also include Ski2-like and NS3/NPH-II helicases. By binding and remodeling DNA and RNA, DEAH/RHA helicases play critical roles in many cellular processes ...

Synthetic lethal interactions of DEAD/H-box helicases as targets for cancer therapy
DEAD/H-box helicases are implicated in virtually every aspect of RNA metabolism, including transcription, pre-mRNA splicing, ribosomes biogenesis, nuclear export, translation initiation, RNA degradation, and mRNA editing.

Use of streptavidin bound to biotinylated DNA structures as model substrates for analysis of nucleoprotein complex disruption by helicases [PDF]
Helicases are a subfamily of translocases that couple the directional translocation along a nucleic acid lattice to the separation of nucleic acid duplexes using the energy derived from nucleoside triphosphate hydrolysis.

RNA Helicase A Regulates the Replication of RNA Viruses [PDF]
The RNA helicase A (RHA) is a member of DExH-box helicases and characterized by two double-stranded RNA binding domains at the N-terminus. RHA unwinds double-stranded RNA in vitro and is involved in RNA metabolisms in the cell. RHA is also hijacked by a variety of RNA viruses to facilitate virus replication. Herein, this review will provide an overview
