DNA helicase doesn't just unzip genes—it's basically the molecular equivalent of that one friend who can open any jar lid. The meme shows this protein complex (looking all fancy in blue and yellow) doing its job of separating DNA strands during replication. See that little bulge? That's where helicase is working its magic, creating the replication fork where all the genetic action happens. It's basically DNA's way of saying "I'm too hot to stay together right now" before it splits into single strands. Heat shock proteins would be like "Don't call me, I only handle actual heat stress, not your metaphorical fire memes."
