Definition
English
:
A
family
of structurally-related
DNA helicases
that play an essential
role
in the
maintenance
of
genome
integrity.
RecQ helicases
were originally discovered in E COLI and are highly conserved across both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Genetic mutations that result in loss of RecQ helicase activity gives rise to disorders that are associated with CANCER predisposition and premature
aging.
