'''MET REPRESSOR/DNA COMPLEX + S-ADENOSYL-METHIONINE'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
The crystal structure of the met repressor-operator complex shows two, dimeric repressor molecules bound to adjacent sites 8 base pairs apart on, an 18-base-pair DNA fragment. Sequence specificity is achieved by, insertion of double-stranded antiparallel protein beta-ribbons into the, major groove of B-form DNA, with direct hydrogen-bonding between, amino-acid side chains and the base pairs. The repressor also recognizes, sequence-dependent distortion or flexibility of the operator phosphate, backbone, conferring specificity even for inaccessible base pairs.
