Dda
[edit]Dda (also known as DNA-dependent ATPase, Dda helicase, Dda DNA helicase) is the 49,897 Dalton 439 amino acid polypeptide coded by the Dda gene of the Enterobacteria phage T4.
Biochemistry
[edit]Dda hydrolyzes ATP in and only in the presence of substrate single stranded DNA. Dda binds its substrate (ssDNA) and processively translocates in a 5' to 3' direction in an ATP-dependent manner. In other words, Dda couples ATP hydrolysis and ssDNA translocation.
