[[Image:H Bonding of DNA.png|300 px|left|thumb|'''Figure 4'''. The Hydrogen Bonding Network is shown with dotted green lines approximately 2.8 angstroms between residues.]]
The binding of zinc metals creates a hydrogen bond network within the protein that connects the metal binding sites and the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA-binding_domain DNA binding domain]. The <scene name='69/694230/Hydrogen_bonding_1/5'>hydrogen bond network</scene> (<scene name='69/694230/Hydrogen_bonding_2/5'>with measurements</scene>) (residues in stick structures, colored by atom type) is characteristic of the MarR family as a whole and connects the metal binding pockets to the α4 helix also known as the DNA recognition helix. <scene name='69/694230/Recognition_helix/3'>Several residues</scene> in this helix recognize the DNA ligand. The hydrogen bond network connects the α2 and α4 helices via hydrogen bonding between specific residues. After zinc is bound, a glutamate (E24) residue from a random coil accepts a hydrogen bond from the carboxamide end of an asparagine (N38) residue from the α2 helix. A glutamine (Q40) residue from α2 helix accepts a hydrogen bond from a serine (S74) residue from the α4 helix <ref name="guerra" />.
