DHX29
geneOn this page
Summary
DHX29 (DExH-box helicase 29, HGNC:15815) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 5q11.2, encoding ATP-dependent RNA helicase DHX29 (Q7Z478). ATP-binding RNA helicase involved in translation initiation. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 15.0% of cell lines).
This gene encodes a member of the DEAH (Asp-Glu-Ala-His) subfamily of proteins, part of the DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box family of RNA helicases. The encoded protein functions in translation initiation, and is specifically required for ribosomal scanning across stable mRNA secondary structures during initiation codon selection. This protein may also play a role in sensing virally derived cytosolic nucleic acids. Knockdown of this gene results in reduced protein translation and impaired proliferation of cancer cells.

Function. ATP-binding RNA helicase involved in translation initiation. Part of the 43S pre-initiation complex that is required for efficient initiation on mRNAs of higher eukaryotes with structured 5’-UTRs by promoting efficient NTPase-dependent 48S complex formation. Specifically binds to the 40S ribosome near the mRNA entrance. Does not possess a processive helicase activity.
Subunit / interactions. Part of the 43S pre-initiation complex (PIC) that contains at least Met-tRNA, EIF1, EIF1A (EIF1AX or EIF1AY), EIF2S1, EIF2S2, EIF2S3, EIF3A, EIF3B, EIF3C, EIF3D, EIF3E, EIF3F, EIF3G, EIF3H, EIF3I, EIF3J, EIF3K, EIF3L, EIF3M, DHX29 and the 40S ribosomal subunit.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm.
Similarity. Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. DEAH subfamily.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 111 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
