Genetically engineered synthetic miniaturized versions of Plasmodium falciparum UvrD helicase are catalytically active.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2014

Ansari Abulaish, Tarique Mohammed, Tuteja Renu

Abstract excerpt

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....
