Helicase has an important job of
In the process of DNA replication helicase has a significant role.
DNA is a double stranded structure, during the replication process helicase separates the double stranded DNA into single stranded DNA. So the single stranded DNA can act as a template strand and it can able to involve in the synthesis of new DNA strand.
Enzyme helicase binds with the double stranded DNA and unwinds the strand by breaking down the hydrogen bonds, which holds the DNA strand together. Finally it get separated and involves in replication.
