Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
poly(C) stimulates ATPase and dATPase activity Homo sapiens
Single-stranded RNA RNA helicase catalyzes the unwinding of duplex RNA and RNA*DNA hybrids provided that single-stranded RNA is available for the helicase to bind Homo sapiens

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
KCl RNA-dependent ATPase activity is sensitive to high salt concentrations. Maximal activity is obtained in the absence of KCl, and it is inhibited 50% at 0.1 M KC1, completely inhibited at 0.3 M KCl Homo sapiens
NEM 5 mM, ATPase activity is blocked Homo sapiens

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
Mg2+ requirement for divalent ions for ATP hydrolysis is specific for Mg2+ and is not supported by Mn2+ and Ca2+. Half-maximum activity is achieved with concentrations of Mg2+ of 0.120 mM Homo sapiens

ATP + H2O the enzyme displaces partial duplex RNA exclusively in a 5' to 3' direction. This reaction is supported by ATP and dATP at relatively high concentrations. The enzyme displays only ATPase and dATPase activity. RNA helicase catalyzes the unwinding of duplex RNA and RNA*DNA hybrids provided that single-stranded RNA is available for the helicase to bind Homo sapiens ADP + phosphate
