Anatomy of specific interactions between lambda repressor and operator DNA.

Abstract excerpt

Recognition of specific DNA sequences by proteins is essential for regulation of gene expression. To fully understand the recognition mechanism, it is necessary to understand not only the structure of the specific protein-DNA interactions but also the energetics. We therefore performed a computer analysis in which a phage DNA-binding protein, lambda repressor, was used to examine the changes in binding free...
