Helicase is not considered catabolic; rather, it is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the replication and repair of DNA by unwinding the double helix. This process is essential for both anabolic and catabolic pathways, but helicase itself does not break down molecules for energy, which is the hallmark of catabolic processes. Instead, it facilitates the access of other enzymes to the DNA strands for further processing.
DNA Helicase. - an enzyme, is responsible for unwinding and unzipping the double helix.
catabolic pathway of Alcaligenes
Helicase was discovered by James M. Berger and Stephen J. Kowalczykowski in 1995. They identified the role of helicase in DNA replication by studying its function in unwinding the double helix structure of DNA.
Replication would be hard pressed to take place. Helicase is the enzyme that splits the double helix and unwinds this helix so that DNA polymerase can do it's job of running the leading and lagging strands of DNA in the replication process.
Catabolism is when the molecules are broken down and energy is released. Cellular respiration breaks down large molecules, like glucose, and store the energy in the form of ATP. Therefore, cellular respiration is catabolic.
Catabolic
Yes, DNA helicase is an enzyme.

catabolic pathway of Alcaligenes
catabolic
the one that breaks it is called Helicase and the one that adds it is called Polymerase.
Helicase unwinds the DNA during replication.
catabolic.
it's both catabolic and anabolic as there are parts that are taken off (catabolic) and parts added on (anabolic) in the process
Anabolic

No, catabolic pathways are exergonic processes.
