RNA Helicase A unwinds double-stranded DNA and RNA in a 3' to 5' direction. Alteration of secondary structure may subsequently influence interactions with proteins or other nucleic acids. It functions as a transcriptional activator.
It binds MBD2, HRMT1L2/PRMT1, and RELA. It may act to directly link BRCA1, CREBBP or SMN1 and the RNA polymerase II complex. It can also interact with XRCC5 and with TOP2A in a RNA dependent manner; these interactions may be indirect. Interaction with TOP2A is promoted by UBC9 (referenced from swissprot).
Shipped at 4°C. Upon delivery aliquot and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze / thaw cycles.
