Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

Interacting selectively and non-covalently with DNA of a specific nucleotide composition, e.g. GC-rich DNA binding, or with a specific sequence motif or type of DNA e.g. promotor binding or rDNA binding. Interacting selectively with a DNA sequence that controls the expression of a gene. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with the regulatory region composed of the transcription start site and binding sites for transcription factor complexes of the basal transcription machinery. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an E-box, a DNA motif with the consensus sequence CANNTG that is found in the promoters of a wide array of genes in neurons, muscle and other tissues.
