DEXH-box helicase domain of ERCC6L. ERCC excision repair 6 like, spindle assembly checkpoint helicase (ERCC6L, also known as RAD26L) is an essential component of the mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint, by acting as a tension sensor that associates with catenated DNA which is stretched under tension until it is resolved during anaphase. ERCC6L is proposed to stimulate cancer cell proliferation by promoting cell cycle through a way of RAB31-MAPK-CDK2. ERCC6L is a member of the DEAD-like helicase superfamily, a diverse family of proteins involved in ATP-dependent RNA or DNA unwinding. This domain contains the ATP-binding region. |
