Abstract excerpt
A family of helicases that are important in maintaining genome stability is the iron-sulfur group. Members of this family include DOG-1/FANCJ, RTEL1, XPD and Chl1p/DDX11. In Caenorhabitis elegans, the predicted gene M03C11.2 has orthology to the CHL1 (Chromosome loss 1) gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and DDX11 (DEAD/H box polypeptide 11) in humans. In this paper, we show that the chl-1 gene in C. elegans is...
