Background Information

DEAD box proteins are characterized by nine conserved sequence motifs located on two functional domains. Domain I contains six of these motifs, including the Q motif and the Walker A motif, motifs Ia and Ib, the Walker B motif, and motif III, which may act to link ATPase and helicase activities of the protein [PMID:21653890]. DDX4, a member of the DEAD box family of ATP-dependent RNA helicases, plays a central role in several aspects of germ cell development. Its function is not only required during gametogenesis in the adult but is also essential for the specification of the germ cell lineage during embryogenesis [PMID:20016130].
