| - | When compared to DNA recognition by other HDs, the 'base reader' helix alpha 3 in STF-HD not only specifies DNA sequence in the major groove of DNA, but also interacts with DNA from the minor groove providing important interactions. Our structure based mutagenesis and functional studies in planta support the structural observations. The findings from this study provide new insights into the DNA binding mechanisms of plant specific HDs from WOX family or transcription factors. | + | When compared to DNA recognition by other HDs, the 'base reader' helix alpha 3 in STF-HD not only specifies DNA sequence in the major groove of DNA, but also interacts with DNA from the minor groove providing important interactions: |
