additional information efficiency of unwinding is enhanced in the presence of a heterologous single strand-binding protein or a single-stranded (ss) DNA that is complementary to the unwound strand. TWINKLE has an antagonistic activity of annealing two complementary ssDNAs that interferes with unwinding in the absence of gp2.5 single strand-binding protein or ssDNA trap. Only ssDNA and not dsDNA competitively inhibits the annealing activity, although both DNAs bind with high affinities Homo sapiens ?
