Binding of nucleoid-associated protein fis to DNA is regulated by DNA breathing dynamics.

Physicochemical properties of DNA, such as shape, affect protein-DNA recognition. However, the properties of DNA that are most relevant for predicting the binding sites of particular transcription factors (TFs) or classes of TFs have yet to be fully understood. Here, using a model that accurately ca...
