Crystal Structure of the DNA Binding Domain of the Heat Shock Transcription Factor

Harrison, Celia J., Bohm, A. Andrew, Nelson, Hillary C. M.·1994·Science

Abstract

The structure of the DNA binding domain, determined at 1.8 angstrom resolution, contains a three-helix bundle that is capped by a four-stranded antiparallel β sheet. This structure is a variant of the helix-turn-helix motif, typified by catabolite activator protein. In the heat shock transcription factor, the first helix of the motif (α2) has an α-helical bulge and a proline-induced kink. The angle between the two helices of the motif (α2 and α3) is about 20° smaller than the average for canonical helix-turn-helix proteins. Nevertheless, the relative positions of the first and third helices of the bundle (α1 and α3) are conserved. It is proposed here that the first helix of the three-helix bundle be considered a component of the helix-turn-helix motif.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
