Abstract excerpt
In order to construct zinc finger domains that recognize all of the possible 64 DNA triplets, it is necessary to understand the mechanisms of protein/DNA interactions on the molecular level. Previously we reported 16 zinc finger domains which had been characterized in detail to bind specifically to the 5'-GNN-3' family of DNA sequences. Artificial transcription factors constructed from these domains can regulate...
