Comparison of DNA binding by STF HDA and HDB with WUS-HD dimers. (a) STF HDA (green) and HDB (yellow). The nonpolar residues buried at the interfaces are shown as sticks, with dotted envelopes indicating the van der Waals radius. STF HDA and HDB are more than 8 Å apart and do not contact each other directly. (b) WUS-HD dimer (blue and teal) bound to the TAAT motif (PDB entry 6ryl). WUS HD1 is bound at the TAAT core, while WUS HD3 is bound at a neighboring location without base-specific interactions. (c) WUS-HD dimer (blue and light blue) bound to the TGAA repeat (PDB entry 6ryd). (d) WUS-HD dimer (blue and light blue) bound to the G-box motif (PDB entry 6ryi). |
