HELB - DNA helicase B Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as DHB; hDHB

Gene ID: 92797 | Gene type: protein coding

About HELB

Cytogenetic location: 12q14.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:66,302,493-66,343,643 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 156 orthologues and 18 paralogues. Broad expression in bone marrow (RPKM 1.7), appendix (RPKM 1.4) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a DNA-dependent ATPase which catalyzes the unwinding of DNA necessary for DNA replication, repair, recombination, and transcription. This gene is thought to function specifically during the S phase entry of the cell cycle. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
