DNA helicase IV HelD, N-terminal domain
DNA helicase IV HelD N-terminal domain (COG3973): conserved bacterial N-terminal region of the SF1 helicase IV (E. coli helD, 82 kDa, 3'-5' polarity) and of the related transcription factor HelD; required for helicase and transcription-stimulation activity, not for ATPase.
DNA helicase, ATP-dependent, UvrD type
UvrD-type ATP-dependent DNA helicase (E. coli helicase II, uvrD gene), a non-hexameric SF1 3'→5' motor with 1A/1B/2A/2B domains; dimeric helicase, ~40-50 bp processivity, roles in mismatch and nucleotide excision repair.
RecBCD enzyme subunit RecD
RecD is the 67-kDa 5'→3' helicase subunit of the E. coli RecBCD helicase-nuclease, the fast motor on the 5'-ended strand that RecC signals to stop at Chi sites; recD mutants lack nuclease activity but stay recombination proficient.
Superfamily 1 helicases
Superfamily 1 (SF1) helicases, also called Superfamily 1 RNA helicases, are motor proteins that use ATP to unwind DNA or RNA during replication, repair, recombination, and RNA processing.
