Four DNA-dependent ATPases have been isolated from E. coli extracts. ATPases I and III, both sensitive to NEM, require denatured DNA but differ in their heat sensitivity, elution from DEAE-cellulose, and sedimentation coefficient. ATPases II and IV are both resistant to NEM. ATPase II requires partially denatured DNA, whereas ATPase IV can be stimulated by SS DNA. ATPase I is a DNA-unwinding enzyme; ATPase II may be involved in recombination.
