Index DEAD/DEAH box helicase

The DEAD/DEAH box helicases are a family of proteins whose purpose is to unwind nucleic acids. [1]

8 relations: Biogenesis, DEAD box, Helicase, Nucleic acid, Protein, Ribosome, RNA, Transcription (biology).

Biogenesis

Biogenesis is the production of new living organisms or organelles.

RNA

Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a polymeric molecule essential in various biological roles in coding, decoding, regulation, and expression of genes.

Transcription (biology)

Transcription is the first step of gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA (especially mRNA) by the enzyme RNA polymerase.
