DHX9 (DEAH (Asp-Glu-Ala-His) box helicase 9) also known as RNA Helicase A, nuclear DNA helicase II (NDHII), belongs to the DExD/H family of helicase superfamily 2, that exhibits both RNA and DNA helicase activity in an ATP dependent reaction.
免疫原
synthetic peptide corresponding to the N-terminal region of mouse DHX9
應用
Monoclonal Anti-DHX9/RHA antibody produced in rat has been used in immunoblotting and immunofluorescence.
生化／生理作用
DHX9 (DEAH (Asp-Glu-Ala-His) box helicase 9) is involved in RNA metabolism including RNA secondary structure rearrangement, RNA-protein interactions, RNA turnover, ribosome biogenesis, translation and small RNA metabolism. It participates in the replication cycles of retroviruses and other RNA viruses. DHX9 is implicated in multiple steps of HIV-1 replication, including transcription, export of unspliced viral RNA from the nucleus, translation, particle assembly and reverse transcription.

Similar to proteins, RNA molecules must fold into the correct conformation and associate with protein complexes in order to be functional within a cell. RNA helicases rearrange RNA secondary structure and RNA-protein interactions in an ATP-dependent reaction, performing crucial functions
