UniProt functional annotation for Q03532

UniProt code: Q03532.

Organism: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c) (Baker's yeast).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Saccharomycotina; Saccharomycetes; Saccharomycetales; Saccharomycetaceae; Saccharomyces.
 
Function: ATP-dependent RNA helicase involved in 40S ribosomal subunit biogenesis. Required for the processing and cleavage of 35S pre-rRNA at sites A0, A1, and A2, leading to mature 18S rRNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15049817, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15242642, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15718299}.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=ATP + H2O = ADP + H(+) + phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:13065, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:30616, ChEBI:CHEBI:43474, ChEBI:CHEBI:456216; EC=3.6.4.13;
Biophysicochemical properties: Kinetic parameters: KM=450 uM for ATP {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15718299}; pH dependence: Optimum pH is 6.5. Active from pH 5 to 8. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15718299};
Subunit: Interacts with RRP1. Associates in the nucleolus with the 60S and pre-60S ribosomal subunits. It has also been isolated with the nuclear pore complex. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15100437, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15769876}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus, nucleolus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10684247, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15049817}.
Domain: The Q motif is unique to and characteristic of the DEAD box family of RNA helicases and controls ATP binding and hydrolysis.
Ptm: Phosphorylated by CDK1. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:14574415}.
Miscellaneous: Transcription depends partially on SET1.
Similarity: Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. DDX18/HAS1 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
