Brief Description | DEAD/DEAH box RNA helicase family protein |
TAIR Computational Description | DEAD/DEAH box RNA helicase family protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes an ortholog of the bacterial RecG translocase, an organellar protein with multiple roles in mtDNA maintenance. The protein is targeted to mitochondria and plastids and is required for recombination-dependent repair and for suppression of ectopic recombination in mitochondria, most likely because of its role in recovery of stalled replication forks. |
