Zinc-Dependent Transcriptional Regulator AdcR has on each of its two domains (important amino acids for zinc binding shown in white) and can bind a total of four zinc ions at one time. Of the two binding sites, binding site 1 is the only site with known importance for DNA binding. The function of binding site 2 is unknown.

Binding Site 1

consists of a distorted tetrahedral geometry around the zinc ion. The four amino acids involved in zinc binding are E24, H42, H108, and H112.

Binding Site 2

consists of a highly distorted tetrahedral geometry around the zinc ion. There are three amino acids involved in the binding of the zinc ion (C30, E41, and E107) as well as a water molecule. If a C30A mutation is present in binding site 1, it will have no effect on the ability of the protein to bind DNA. Therefore, binding site 2 has no significant role in DNA binding.

DNA Binding

HTH Domain

The AdcR MarR transcriptional regulator's structure resembles the other proteins in the same family; however, the most notable differences are found in the winged helix-turn-helix (wHTH) motif that assists in binding DNA. This wHTH motif is consistent among all marR family proteins that bind DNA.
