Function
Multifunctional enzyme that has magnesium and ATP-dependent 3'-5' DNA-helicase activity on partially duplex substrates (PubMed:9611231, PubMed:9224595, PubMed:9288107). Also has 3'->5' exonuclease activity towards double-stranded DNA with a 5'-overhang (PubMed:11863428). Has no nuclease activity towards single-stranded DNA or blunt-ended double-stranded DNA (PubMed:11863428). Helicase activity is most efficient with (d)ATP, but (d)CTP will substitute with reduced efficiency; strand displacement ... (Source: Uniprot)
