Type: | Domain | Name: | Helicase Sen1, N-terminal |
Description: | The yeast helicase Sen1 is an ATP-dependent 5'->3' DNA/RNA helicase required for the expression and maturation of diverse classes of non-protein-coding RNAs like precursor tRNAs, rRNAs and small nuclear (snRNA) and nucleolar (snoRNA) RNAs [, ]. The C-terminal domain of Sen1 is essential for cell growth, while the N-terminal domain appears to be dispensible []. This entry represents the N-terminal domain. | Short Name: | Helicase_Sen1_N |
