Descriptions

DEAD-box proteins utilize ATP to bind and remodel RNA and RNA-protein complexes. The Ded1/DDX3 subfamily of DEAD-box proteins is of particular interest as their function during protein translation, are essential for viability, and are frequently altered in human malignancies. <br>There is a unique interdomain interaction between the two ATPase domains (DEAD box helicase domain and helicase domain) in which the C-terminal helicase domain clashes with the RNA-binding surface. Destabilizing this interaction accelerates RNA duplex unwinding, suggesting that it is present in solution and inhibitory for catalysis. The N-terminal extension to the DEAD box helicase interacts with DEAD box helicase domain and C-terminal helicase domain, and stabilizes the autoinhibited state of DDX3X.

2 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
nucleus A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent.
P granule A small cytoplasmic, non-membranous RNA/protein complex aggregate in the primordial germ cells of many higher eukaryotes.

5 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
ATP binding Binding to ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
ATP hydrolysis activity Catalysis of the reaction
DNA binding Any molecular function by which a gene product interacts selectively and non-covalently with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).
mRNA binding Binding to messenger RNA (mRNA), an intermediate molecule between DNA and protein. mRNA includes UTR and coding sequences, but does not contain introns.
RNA helicase activity Unwinding of an RNA helix, driven by ATP hydrolysis.

3 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
cell differentiation The cellular developmental process in which a relatively unspecialized cell, e.g. embryonic or regenerative cell, acquires specialized structural and/or functional features that characterize a specific cell. Differentiation includes the processes involved in commitment of a cell to a specific fate and its subsequent development to the mature state.
gamete generation The generation and maintenance of gametes in a multicellular organism. A gamete is a haploid reproductive cell.
negative regulation of gene expression Any process that decreases the frequency, rate or extent of gene expression. Gene expression is the process in which a gene's coding sequence is converted into a mature gene product (protein or RNA).
