13-15 residues contribute to the attachment of an RTP molecule to the ''Ter'' | 13-15 residues contribute to the attachment of an RTP molecule to the ''Ter'' DNA site. Most of this is contributed by the basic residues of the <scene name='Sandbox20/2efw/30'>α3 helix</scene>, which lies in the major groove of DNA. | ||
The asymmetry of the dimer is shown by the names 'wing up' and 'wing down'. It is measured by the angle between the a2 and a3 heices, as shown <scene name='Sandbox20/2efw/14'>by clicking here</scene>. | The asymmetry of the dimer is shown by the names 'wing up' and 'wing down'.

The consequence of these different conformations is most prominent in the position of the B1 sheet. This is evident in the Tyr33 residue, <scene name='Sandbox20/2efw/20'>shown by clicking here</scene> | |||
