Results show refined biochemical and biological comparison of yeast Dbp2 and human DDX5 enzymes. Human DDX5 possesses a 10-fold higher unwinding activity than Dbp2, partially due to the presence of a mammalian/avian specific C-terminal extension. Also, ectopic expression of DDX5 rescues the cold sensitivity, cryptic initiation defects, and impaired glucose import in dbp2Delta cells, suggesting functional conservation.

These data show that Yra1 inhibits unwinding in a concentration-dependent manner by preventing the association of Dbp2 with single-stranded RNA.

Dbp2 is a missing link in RNA quality control that functions to maintain the fidelity of transcriptional processes.
