The interaction between the HMG-Box and DNA is specific and stable. It permits the bend of DNA (?75°). It is mostly hydrophobic interaction. Only one molecule of water interface the Box and the DNA. the complex is stabilized by salt bridges between positive charged residues of the HMG domain and negative charged phosphates.<ref>PMID: 9626701</ref>
