Structure of the repressor-operator complex of bacteriophage 434

Structure of the repressor-operator complex of bacteriophage 434

J E Anderson et al. Nature. 1987.

Abstract

The crystal structure of a specific complex between the DNA-binding domain of phage 434 repressor and a synthetic 434 operator DNA shows interactions that determine sequence-dependent affinity. The repressor recognizes its operators by its complementarity to a particular DNA conformation as well as by direct interaction with base pairs in the major groove.
