Abstract
Background: The structural basis for interaction between a master regulator and DNA remains unclear. Results: We solved the crystal structures of a broad regulator Ms6564 and its protein-operator complex. Conclusion: Ms6564 binds DNA with strong affinity but makes flexible contacts with DNA. Significance: Ms6564 might slide more easily along the genomic DNA and extensively regulate the expression of diverse genes.
