Most proteins have roughly equal numbers of positive and negative charges intermixed on their surfaces. Surface patches of exclusively positive charge often bind nucleic acids (negatively charged because of their phosphates). For example, examine the protein surface charges where the gal4 transcriptional regulator binds DNA ([ | Most proteins have roughly equal numbers of positive and negative charges intermixed on their surfaces.
