'''Helicase''' (Hel) is a motor protein which separates nucleic acid strands like DNA double helix or self-annealed RNA. They use ATP hydrolysis for energy. Hel falls into 5 superfamilies (SF1-SF5). Some Hel contain a Helicase and RNase D C terminal | '''Helicase''' (Hel) is a motor protein which separates nucleic acid strands like DNA double helix or self-annealed RNA.
