Crystal structure of Sulfolobus Cren7-dsDNA complex

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 20512977

Function

[CREN7_SULSO] A highly abundant probable chromatin protein, it binds double-strand DNA without sequence specificity; there is approximately 1 Cren7 molecule for 12 bp of DNA. Constrains negative DNA supercoils, increases DNA stability against thermal denaturation. Binding does not require protein methylation. Binds single-strand DNA weakly.[1]

About this Structure

3kxt is a 3 chain structure with sequence from Sulfolobus solfataricus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
