Function

HELIC_BPT7 ATP-dependent DNA helicase and primase essential for viral DNA replication and recombination (PubMed:21606333, PubMed:22977246, PubMed:32009150). The helicase moves 5' -> 3' on the lagging strand template, unwinding the DNA duplex ahead of the leading strand polymerase at the replication fork and generating ssDNA for both leading and lagging strand synthesis (PubMed:21606333, PubMed:22977246, PubMed:32009150). ATP or dTTP hydrolysis propels each helicase domain to translocate 2 nt per step sequentially along DNA (PubMed:17604719, PubMed:30679383). Mediates strand transfer when a joint molecule is available and participates in recombinational DNA repair through its role in strand exchange (PubMed:8617248, PubMed:9096333). Primase activity synthesizes short RNA primers at the sequence 5'-GTC-3' on the lagging strand that the polymerase elongates using dNTPs and providing the primase is still present (PubMed:6454135, PubMed:9139692).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04154]^[1] ^[2] ^[3] ^[4] ^[5] ^[6] ^[7] ^[8] ^[9]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Visualization in atomic detail of the replisome that performs concerted leading- and lagging-DNA strand synthesis at a replication fork has not been reported. Using bacteriophage T7 as a model system, we determined cryo-electron microscopy structures up to 3.2-angstroms resolution of helicase translocating along DNA and of helicase-polymerase-primase complexes engaging in synthesis of both DNA strands. Each domain of the spiral-shaped hexameric helicase translocates sequentially hand-over-hand along a single-stranded DNA coil, akin to the way AAA+ ATPases (adenosine triphosphatases) unfold peptides. Two lagging-strand polymerases are attached to the primase, ready for Okazaki fragment synthesis in tandem. A beta hairpin from the leading-strand polymerase separates two parental DNA strands into a T-shaped fork, thus enabling the closely coupled helicase to advance perpendicular to the downstream DNA duplex. These structures reveal the molecular organization and operating principles of a replisome.
