The Protein Family of RNA Helicases

Lüking, Angelika, Stahl, Ulf, Schmidt, Udo·1998·Critical Reviews in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

Abstract

RNA helicases represent a large family of proteins that have been detected in almost all biological systems where RNA plays a central role. They are ubiquitously distributed over a wide range of organisms and are involved in nuclear and mitochondrial splicing processes, RNA editing, rRNA processing, translation initiation, nuclear mRNA export, and mRNA degradation. RNA helicases are described as essential factors in cell development and differentiation, and some of them play a role in transcription and replication of viral single-stranded RNA genomes. Comparisons of the conserved sequences reveal a close relationship between them and suggest that these proteins might be derived from a common ancestor. Biochemical studies have revealed a strong dependence of the unwinding activity on ATP hydrolysis. Although RNA helicase activity has only been demonstrated for a few examples yet, it is generally believed that all members of the largest subgroups, the DEAD and DEAH box proteins, exhibit this activity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
