hSRY: molecular gender bender

Structure. 1995 Jul 15;3(7):631-3. doi: 10.1016/s0969-2126(01)00196-4.

Abstract

The recently published solution structure of the DNA-binding domain of hSRY in complex with a DNA octamer offers insight into the sex reversal effects of mutations in hSRY and the interaction of all HMG boxes with DNA.
