Members of this family include the DEAD and DEAH box helicases. Helicases are involved in unwinding nucleic acids. The DEAD box helicases are involved in various aspects of RNA metabolism, including nuclear transcription, pre mRNA splicing, ribosome biogenesis, nucleocytoplasmic transport, translation, RNA decay and organellar gene expression.

DNA polymerase theta (Pol Theta, encoded the POLQ gene) is one of ~15 DNA polymerases in the human genome. PolQ is distinct among human DNA polymerases, exhibiting not only a C-terminal DNA polymerase domain but also an N-terminal domain exhibiting similarity and motifs typical of superfamily 2 (SF2) helicases [1]. This entry corresponds to the helical domain [1].
