Here we show that the MarR-type zinc transcriptional regulator ZitR switches one of its histidine nitrogen atoms for zinc coordination during the allosteric control of DNA binding. The Zn(II)-coordination nitrogen on histidine 42 within ZitR's high-affinity zinc site (site 1) switches from Nepsilon2 to Ndelta1 upon Zn(II) binding to its low-affinity zinc site (site 2), which facilitates ZitR's conversion from the nonoptimal to the optimal DNA-binding conformation. This histidine switch-mediated cooperation between site 1 and site 2 enables ZitR to adjust its DNA-binding affinity in response to a broad range of zinc fluctuation, which may allow the fine tuning of transcriptional regulation.
