Proteins that mimic DNA present a surface that is similar in shape and chemical character to the DNA double helix. These DNA mimics bind to DNA-binding proteins, taking the place of DNA. Natural DNA mimics play roles in genetic regulation and defense.
模仿DNA的蛋白质呈现出一种在形状和化学特性上与DNA双螺旋相似的表面。这些DNA模拟物与DNA结合蛋白结合,取代了DNA的位置。天然的DNA模拟物在基因调控和防御中发挥作用。
