Unlabelled: The papillomavirus (PV) E2 protein is highly conserved, consisting of an N-terminal transactivation domain linked to a C-terminal DNA binding and dimerization domain (DBD) by a flexible hinge region. The E2 DBD exhibits a helix-turn-helix structure that dimerizes into a beta barrel prior to binding DNA; the first helix, α1, is responsible for recognition of the palindromic E2 binding site. The DNA recognition helix consists of a tract of basic amino acids with a highly conserved central cysteine residue.
