Function

[GAL4_YEAST] This protein is a positive regulator for the gene expression of the galactose-induced genes such as GAL1, GAL2, GAL7, GAL10, and MEL1 which code for the enzymes used to convert galactose to glucose. It recognizes a 17 base pair sequence in (5'-CGGRNNRCYNYNCNCCG-3') the upstream activating sequence (UAS-G) of these genes. This sequence is correctly shown on the structure as (5'-CGGAGGACTGCCCTCCG-3'). with all of the base pairs within 5 angstroms of the protein highlighted illustrates that the protein interacts with both strands of the UAS.

Publication Abstract from PubMed

A specific DNA complex of the 65-residue, N-terminal fragment of the yeast transcriptional activator, GAL4, has been analysed at 2.7 A resolution by X-ray crystallography. The protein binds as a to a symmetrical 17-base-pair sequence. There is a compact (residues 8-40), an (41-49), and an (50-64). A small, Zn(2+)-containing domain recognizes a conserved CCG triplet at each end of the site through direct contacts with the major groove. The metal binding domain contains that coordinate to the metal as shown as cadmium. A short coiled-coil dimerization element imposes 2-fold symmetry. A segment of extended polypeptide chain links the metal-binding module to the dimerization element and specifies the length of the site. The relatively open structure of the complex would allow another protein to bind coordinately with GAL4.

 == Cas9 Overview ==
 CRISPR is a bacterial immune response to bacteriophages to prevent subsequent infections and is a form of acquired immunity. Within the CRISPR system, Cas9 is a protein responsible for cutting the viral DNA rendering it inert. <scene name='92/925538/4un3/1'>Cas9</scene> structure in Staphylococcus aureus (SaCas9) utilizes a single stranded guide RNA (sgRNA) to bind the target DNA that will be cut. The target DNA must also have a PAM sequence to bind to Cas9 to be cut. Cas9 has four main mechanisms that are important for successful cleavage including recognition of the sgRNA-target heteroduplex, recognition of the PAM sequence, recognition of the sgRNA scaffold, and endonuclease activity by HNH and RuvC.
