Abstract:RecQ helicases are superfamily 2 (SF2) DNA helicases that unwind a wide spectrum of complex DNA structures in a 3 0 to 5 0 direction and are involved in maintaining genome stability. RecQ helicases from protozoan parasites have gained significant interest in recent times because of their involvement in cellular DNA repair pathways, making them important targets for drug development. In this study, we report biophysical and biochemical characterization of the catalytic core of a RecQ helicase from hemoflagellat… Show more
