Determination of DNA binding specificities of mutated zinc finger domains.
FEBS letters - 20 May 1991
Thiesen H J, Bach C
Abstract excerpt
By substituting non conserved amino acids present in the postulated alpha-helical region of zinc finger domains, we demonstrated that Cys2/His2 type zinc finger domains could be targeted to new DNA binding sites. The putative alpha-helical region of the second SP1 zinc finger (RSDELQRH) was replaced by amino acids (KSSALISH) occurring in analogous zinc finger positions of human zinc finger protein Kox 29. The DNA...
