Roles of the C-Terminal Amino Acids of Non-Hexameric Helicases: Insights from <i>Escherichia coli</i> UvrD

Helicases are nucleic acid-unwinding enzymes that are involved in the maintenance of genome integrity. Several parts of the amino acid sequences of helicases are very similar, and these quite well-conserved amino acid sequences are termed “helicase motifs”. Previous studies by X-ray crystallography...
