Dynamic structural insights into the molecular mechanism of DNA unwinding by the bacteriophage T7 helicase
The hexametric T7 helicase (gp4) adopts a spiral lock-washer form and encircles a coil-like DNA (tracking) strand with two nucleotides bound to each subunit. However, the chemo-mechanical coupling mechanism in unwinding has yet to be elucidated. Here, we utilized nanotensioner-enhanced Förster reson...
