The have been found to occur at the Ser 54 and 57 along with His 58. These residues are likely to interact with the 5'-TGAA sequence found in the half-site of the DNA. These residues are found in the N terminal of the R helix. The residues involved in the are Val 42 and Gln 53. This was experimentally determined by replacing the Gln and Val with Ala residues and measuring the binding capacity; the Ka decresed by 11 and 160-fold respectively[1] The previously mentioned Ser and His residues were found to bind the DNA with a similar affinity as the fully inhibited Zn2+.
