Forkhead Transcription Factors: Key Players in Development and

A large proportion of the amino acids in the forkhead domain are invariant or highly conserved (Fig. 1), which implies that there is only limited variation in 3D structure and mode of DNA recognition within the forkhead family. This has been confirmed by NMR structural analysis of the DNA binding do ...
