DNA Protein interaction occur when a protein binds a molecule of DNA, often to regulate the biological function of DNA, usually the expression of a gene. DNA Protein interactions play very vital roles in any living cell. It controls various cellular processes which are very essential for living beings, viz. replication, transcription, recombination, DNA repair etc. There are several types of proteins found in a cell.Direct recognition occurs when the amino acid side chains of a protein interact with specific DNA bases. Most protein-DNA interactions are mediated by direct physical interaction (hydrogen bonding or hydrophobic interactions) between the protein and the DNA base pairs. DNA-binding proteins can be identified by many experimental techniques such as chromatin immunoprecipitation on microarrays, X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR).
