It is a xenogeneic silencer that binds the DNA minor groove, with preference towards DNA sequences harbouring AACTA, TACTA, and flexible multiple TpA steps [1]. This is a typical winged helix fold, with a novel DNA recognition mechanism different from other winged helix proteins or xenogeneic silencers.
