Abstract excerpt
Yeast ADR1 contains two Cys2,His2 zinc fingers needed for DNA binding to the upstream activation sequence UAS1, with bases T5T6G7-G8A9G10 in the ADH2 promoter. Potential DNA-contacting amino acid residues at -1, +3, and +6 in the alpha-helical domains of ADR1's fingers one and two include RHR-RLR; however, the latter finger two residues Leu146 and Arg149 had not proved to be crucial for ADR1 binding, even though...
