Type: | Domain | Name: | ATP-dependent helicase Sgs1 |
Description: | This entry represents a domain found in the fungal Sgs1 protein. Sgs1 is a RecQ family DNA helicase that unwinds DNA in an ATP-dependent manner. Sgs1 has a HRDC (helicase and RNaseD C-terminal) domain which modulates the helicase function via auxiliary contacts to DNA []. It plays roles in genome integrity maintenance, chromosome synapsis, meiotic joint molecule/crossover formation []. | Short Name: | Helicase_Sgs1 |
