DEAD-box helicase proteins disrupt RNA tertiary structure through helix capture.

DEAD-box helicase proteins disrupt RNA tertiary structure through helix capture.

DEAD-box helicase proteins accelerate folding and rearrangements of highly structured RNAs and RNA-protein complexes (RNPs) in many essential cellular processes. Although DEAD-box proteins have been shown to use ATP to unwind short RNA helices, it is not known how they disrupt RNA tertiary structure...
