Active DNA helicase I (MW 180,000) can be isolated from E. coli F+ strains but not F- strains. The transfer of the F sex factor to F- strains by conjugation permits the purification of the enzyme from the transconjugant strains. It is concluded from this that helicase I is coded for by a portion of the F factor. Results also obtained buy using recombinant plasmids carrying different DNA fragments of the F factor transfer region suggests that DNA helicase I is identical to the product of traI, one of the transfer genes of the F factor.
