When transcription meets recombination: a lesson from the human RECQ protein complexes.
Since the cloning of the first human RECQ gene, RECQ1, more than 15 years ago, RECQ helicases have been a major focus in cancer research. Recent studies of human RECQ protein complexes are providing insight into their roles in various DNA metabolic pathways that protect the integrity of our genome.
