WSTF-PHD

Overview

The PHD (plant homeo domain) is a approximately 50-residue motif found, mainly in proteins involved in eukaryotic transcription regulation. The, characteristic sequence feature is a conserved Cys(4)-HisCys(3) zinc, binding motif. We have determined the solution structure of the PHD motif, from the human Williams-Beuren syndrome transcription factor (WSTF), protein. The domain folds into an interleaved zinc finger which binds two, Zn(2+) in a similar manner to that of the RING and FYVE domains. The, structure reveals a conserved zinc-binding core, together with two, variable loops that are likely candidates for interactions between the, various PHD domains and their specific ligands.

About this Structure
