Type: | Family | Name: | ATP-dependent RNA helicase DeaD |
Description: | RNA helicases from the DEAD-box family are found in almost all organisms and have important roles in RNA metabolism, such as splicing, RNA transport,ribosome biogenesis, translation and RNA decay. They are enzymes that unwind double-stranded RNA molecules in an energy dependent fashion through thehydrolysis of NTP. DEAD-box RNA helicases belong to superfamily 2 (SF2) of helicases. As other SF1 and SF2 members they contain seven conserved motifswhich are characteristic of these two superfamilies [].DEAD-box is named after the amino acids of motif II or Walker B (Mg2+-binding aspartic acid). The RNA helicase DeaD is ATP-dependent [] and is induced by low temperatures []. In addition to its role in unwinding double stranded RNA, it is involved in ribosomal subunit biogenesis []. | Short Name: | DEAD_helicase_DeaD |
