GCN4 is composed of two identical 58 residue alpha helix chains that grouped together to form a parallel coiled-coil dimer.

Roughly 33 of the 58 total residues are located in the Leucine Zipper region. The dimer binds through interlocking leucine amino acids and <scene name='Tom_Sandbox/Hydrophobic_and_philic_regions/3'>hydrophobic residues</scene> near the C terminus, while pinching in on the major groove of DNA in the N terminal end via basic residues. The aforementioned image shows how the hydrophobic regions are between the helices, while the hydrophobic regions protrude outwards. | ||
