Structure and function of DNA-binding proteins.
The past year has seen the determination of over three dozen new structures of DNA-binding proteins. Highlights of new structural motifs include the DNA-binding domain of p53 tumor suppressor and the amino-terminal fragment of Escherichia coli DNA topoisomerase I. Other structures illustrate variations of known structural motifs, including co-crystals of helix-turn-helix, basic helix-loop-helix, and zinc finger proteins.
