It serves as 'The DNA Unwinding Enzyme'. It must needs be that other histone related protein-enzymes are needed for "rewinding".
DNA helicase "unzip," or separate, a strand of DNA at positions called origins. This means that the hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs are removed (DNA is double stranded!). When they separate double-stranded DNA into single strands, it allows each strand to be copied (replication).
The helicases create "forks", which grow bidirectional from the origin. A number of proteins are associated with the replication fork, which helps in terms of the initiation and continuation of DNA synthesis. One protein, the DNA polymerase, creates the new DNA by adding complementary nucleotides to the template strand.
For simplicities sake, DNA can be thought of as a zipper. Think of two separate pieces that are held together by hydrogen bonds. The job of Helicase is to unzip the DNA strand by breaking the hydrogen bonds that hold them together, and it does this by moving along the strand of DNA, very much like on an actual zipper.
Because of this type of movement, helicase is a type of `motor protein.`

Helicase will unwind the double stranded helical structure of DNA so that DNA polymerase can attach and synthesize a new DNA strand. This is the process of DNA repicaltion

DNA Helicase unwinds and unzips the DNA. It separates the two strands of DNA so DNA replication can occur.
What unzips DNA strand is a particular protein called Helicase. Helicase unwinds DNA's double helix at the replication fork.
Helicase is an enzyme involved in DNA replication. It unwinds and unzips the parental DNA strand.
Yes, it unwinds the DNA double helix prior to transcription/protein synthesis and DNA replication.
It unwinds Dna, sometimes by itself yet mostly in conjunction with other Dna-ases; and in doing so, it makes the Bases accessible for Replication and or Transcription.
DNA Helicase unwinds and unzips the DNA. It separates the two strands of DNA so DNA replication can occur.
DNA Helicase is the enzyme responsible for unzipping DNA before replication occurs.
What unzips DNA strand is a particular protein called Helicase. Helicase unwinds DNA's double helix at the replication fork.
A replication bubble.
That would be called the Replication Fork
Helicase is an enzyme involved in DNA replication. It unwinds and unzips the parental DNA strand.
Helicase and DNA polymerase
Helicase unwinds the DNA during replication.
Helicase
The two main ones are DNA-polymerase and helicase
Yes, it unwinds the DNA double helix prior to transcription/protein synthesis and DNA replication.
It unwinds Dna, sometimes by itself yet mostly in conjunction with other Dna-ases; and in doing so, it makes the Bases accessible for Replication and or Transcription.
