{"title":"New Tool Uses 3D Protein-DNA Structures to Predict Locations of Genetic \u2018On-Off\u2019 Switches","description":"<p>Novel systems approach uses high-resolution structures of protein-DNA complexes to predict where transcription factors (genetic switches) bind and regulate the genome. This approach can help researchers better understand and predict binding sites for non-model organisms or \u2018exotic\u2019 species. Having such insight and predictive capabilities is critical for reverse- and forward-engineering organisms that could be pivotal for new green biotechnologies.<\/p>","url":"https:\/\/www.systemsbiology.org\/research\/new-tool-uses-3-d-protein-dna-structures-to-predict-locations-of-genetic-on-off-switches\/"}
