The B3 DNA binding domain (DBD) is a highly conserved domain exclusively found in transcription factors from higher plants (≥40 species) (Pfam PF02362) combined with other domains (IPR003340). It consists of 100-120 residues, includes seven beta strands and two alpha helices which form a DNA-binding pseudobarrel protein fold (SCOP 117343); interacts with the major groove of DNA.[1]

[edit] B3 families

In Arabidopsis thaliana there are three main families of transcription factors which contain B3 domain:[2]

protein ARF1-B3 ABI3-B3 RAV1-B3
B3 structure derived by modelling[1] modelling[1] NMR[1]
B3 recognition sequence TGTCTC[3][4] CATGCA[5][6] CACCTG[7]

PDB 1WID[1] and PDB 1YEL[8] are only known NMR solution phase structures of the B3 DNA Binding Domain.

The N-terminal domain of restriction endonuclease EcoRII; the C-terminal domain of restriction endonuclease BfiI possess a similar DNA-binding pseudobarrel protein fold.[9][10]
