Description:
Article RecQ helicases are enzymes that play a central role in maintaining genome stability in the DNA repair cascade. Klaue et al . show that RecQ2 and RecQ3 from Arabidopsis thaliana process DNA by, respectively, unwinding and rewinding forked DNA substrates, using a frequent strand switching mechanism.
