Genetically engineered synthetic miniaturized versions of Plasmodium falciparum UvrD helicase are catalytically active.
Helicases catalyze unwinding of double stranded nucleic acids in an energy-dependent manner. We have reported characterization of UvrD helicase from Plasmodium falciparum. We reported that the N-terminal and C-terminal fragments of PfUvrD contain characteristic ATPase and DNA helicase activities. He...
