Abstract
DEAD-box proteins are a subfamily of ATPases with similarity to RecA-type helicases that are involved in all aspects of RNA Biology. Despite their potential to regulate these processes via their RNA-dependent ATPase activity, their roles remain poorly characterized. Here I describe a roadmap to study these proteins in the context of ribosome assembly, the process that utilizes more than half of all DEAD-box proteins encoded in the yeast genome.
