This entry represents a DNA-binding domain with a 2-layer beta(3)-alpha fold that is found in several DNA-binding proteins, including:

• DNA-binding domain of tn916 integrase [1].
• N-terminal DNA-binding domain of lambda integrase [2].
• GCC-box DNA-binding domains of certain transcription factors [3].
• Methyl-CpG DNA-binding domain found in Methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2) [4] and methylation-dependent transcriptional repressor MBD1/PCM1 [5].
