Integration host factor (IHF) is a nucleoid-associated protein involved in DNA packaging,
integration of viral DNA and recombination. IHF binds with nanomolar affinity to duplex DNA …

Integration host factor (IHF) of E. coli is a nucleoid-associated protein, pivotal in DNA
packaging, viral DNA integration, and recombination. IHF binds to duplex DNA, forming a 13 …

Integration host factor (IHF) is a vital nucleoid-associated protein that binds strongly to a 13-
base-pair consensus sequence, inducing a significant bend of approximately 160° upon …

Nucleoid-associated proteins (NAPs) are crucial in organizing prokaryotic DNA and
regulating genes. Vital to these activities are complex nucleoprotein structures, however …

Integration host factor (IHF) is a heterodimeric Eschericia coli protein that plays essential
roles in a variety of cellular processes including site-specific recombination, transcription …

The crystal structure of integration host factor (IHF) complexed with DNA shows how a small
heterodimeric protein can induce a big bend in DNA. IHF exerts leverage in the minor …

The dynamics and mechanism of how site-specific DNA-bending proteins initially interrogate
potential binding sites prior to recognition have remained elusive for most systems. Here we …

Integration host factor (IHF) is a small heterodimeric protein that specifically binds to DNA
and functions as an architectural factor in many cellular processes in prokaryotes. Here, we …

The prokaryotic integration host factor (IHF) is a DNA-binding protein that binds to specific
DNA sites as a heterodimer. Genetic and mutational analyses have previously identified …

Integration host factor (IHF) is a DNA–bending protein that recognizes its cognate sites
through indirect readout. Previous studies have shown that binding of wild-type (WT)-IHF is …
