== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/HMEN_DROME HMEN_DROME] This protein specifies the body segmentation pattern. It is required for the development of the central nervous system. Transcriptional regulator that represses activated promoters. Wg signaling operates by inactivating the SGG repression of EN autoactivation.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The homeodomain (HD)-DNA interface has been conserved over 500 million years of evolution. Despite this conservation, we have successfully re-engineered the engrailed HD to specifically recognize an unnatural nucleotide using a phage display selection. Here we report the synthesis of novel nucleosides and the selection of mutant HDs that bind these nucleotides using phage display. The high-resolution crystal structure of one mutant in complex with modified and unmodified DNA demonstrates that, even with the substantial perturbation to the interface, this selected mutant retains a canonical HD structure. Dissection of the contributions due to each of the selected mutations reveals that the majority of the modification-specific binding is accomplished by a single mutation (I47G) but that the remaining mutations retune the stability of the HD. These results afford a detailed look at a re-engineered protein-DNA interaction and provide insight into the opportunities for re-engineering highly conserved interfaces.
