DEAD-box helicase domain of DEAD box protein 18 This DDX18 gene encodes a DEAD box protein and is activated by Myc protein. DDX18 is a member of the DEAD-box helicases, a diverse family of proteins involved in ATP-dependent RNA unwinding, needed in a variety of cellular processes including splicing, ribosome biogenesis and RNA degradation. The name derives from the sequence of the Walker B motif (motif II). This domain contains the ATP-binding region.
