The Floral Homeotic Protein SEPALLATA3 Recognizes Target DNA Sequences By Shape Readout Involving A Conserved Arginine Residue In The MADS-Domain
S. Gusewski, R. Melzer, F. Ruempler, C. Gafert, G. Theissen
This study shows that SEPALLATA3 recognizes CArG-box DNA sequences through shape readout, with a conserved arginine residue in the MADS-domain playing a key role in DNA binding specificity.
