|
|
|
|
||
| UniProt code: P56255. |
|
||
| Organism: | |
Geobacillus stearothermophilus (Bacillus stearothermophilus). |
| Taxonomy: | |
Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacilli; Bacillales; Bacillaceae; Geobacillus. |
|

|
||
| Function: | |
DNA helicase. Has a broad nucleotide specificity, even being able to hydrolyze ethenonucleotides, and is able to couple the hydrolysis to unwinding of DNA substrates. It is a 3'-5' helicase but at high protein concentrations it can also displace a substrate with a 5' tail. Preferred substrate being one with both single and double- stranded regions of DNA. |
