3D DNA structure for class 1

B DNA

B DNA

Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate

This is a transcriptional repressor protein from E. coli. It binds specifically to particular sequences. You can see how the parts of the protein interact with the edges of the bases in both the major and minor grooves.
