We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

Publication Abstract from PubMed
DEAH helicases participate in pre-messenger RNA splicing and ribosome biogenesis. The structure of yeast Prp43p-ADP reveals the homology of DEAH helicases to DNA helicases and the presence of an oligonucleotide-binding motif. A beta-hairpin from the second RecA domain is wedged between two carboxy-terminal domains and blocks access to the occluded RNA binding site formed by the RecA domains and a C-terminal domain. ATP binding and hydrolysis are likely to induce conformational changes in the hairpin that are important for RNA unwinding or ribonucleoprotein remodelling. The structure of Prp43p provides the framework for functional and genetic analysis of all DEAH helicases.
