Gal4 DBD

This protein is a positive regulator for the gene expression of the galactose-induced genes such as GAL1, GAL2, GAL7, GAL10, and MEL1 which encode for the enzymes used to convert galactose to glucose. This protein contains a fungal Zn(2)-Cys(6) binuclear cluster domain.

3D structure of dimerized Gal4 DNA binding domain

Description of the RXRa DBD crystal structure with reference here:[http://www.cell.com/structure/retrieve/pii/S0969212608001809].

Our Gal4 is flanked by RFC 25 Prefix and Suffix, and thus can be used for assembly of in frame composite parts.

Picture of gel electrophoresis: Gal4 in pSB1C3 results a 441 bp long insert.
