Helicases are molecular motors that couple the chemical energy released from ATP binding and hydrolysis to mechanical energy in the form of unidirectional movement. This tight coupling is achieved by a complex network of cooperative interactions between the subunits and between the NTP and DNA binding sites. Although details of the coupling mechanisms may vary among different helicases, certain general features are conserved and these are discussed below. Introduction
