RecQL Helicase Definition

RecQL protein is a 13,3 kD peptide (1208 aa), belongs to the RecQ subfamily of helicases and contains from aa 476 to 824 an helicase domain with a potential ATP binding site from aa 502 to 509, and the DEAH box from aa 605 to 608. The expression of RecQ4 gene is partially upregulated in the G1/S phase of cell cycle. It suppresses promiscuous genetic recombination and ensures accurate chromosome segregation.
