Zinc-induced folding and solution structure of the eponymous novel zinc finger from the ZC4H2 protein

Rilee E. Harris, Antonio J. Rua, Andrei T. Alexandrescu

The paper investigates the zinc-induced folding and solution structure of the ZC4H2 zinc finger, showing it folds around zinc with picomolar affinity and has a novel structural motif.

Solution structure of the Z0 domain from transcription repressor BCL11A sheds light on the sequence properties of protein-binding zinc-fingers

Rilee E. Harris, Richard D. Whitehead, Andrei T. Alexandrescu

The paper determines the solution structure of the Z0 domain of BCL11A and identifies sequence patterns distinguishing DNA-binding from non-binding zinc-fingers.
