NolR Repressor Bound to DNA (VIDEO) Washington University in St. Louis This video is under embargo. Please login to access this video.

The helices are spaced to fit into the major groove of a DNA molecule (the white and gray double helix below NolR) and bind to "consensus sequences" in the DNA (purple and red), common genetic sequences found in all the genes NolR binds.
