Molecular insights into RNA and DNA helicase evolution from the determinants of specificity for a DEAD-box RNA helicase
How different helicase families with a conserved catalytic ‘helicase core’ evolved to function on varied RNA and DNA substrates by diverse mechanisms remains unclear. In this study, we used Mss116, a yeast DEAD-box protein that utilizes ATP to locally unwind dsRNA, to investigate helicase specificit...
