Facts about ATP-dependent RNA helicase DDX42.
Mediates also RNA duplex formation thereby displacing the single-strand RNA binding protein. ATP and ADP modulate its activity: ATP binding and hydrolysis by DDX42 activates RNA strand separation, whereas the ADP-bound form of the protein activates annealing of complementary RNA strands.
