DNA facilitates heterodimerization between human transcription factors FoxP1 and FoxP2 by increasing their conformational flexibility

Summary: Transcription factors regulate gene expression by binding to DNA. They have disordered regions and specific DNA-binding domains. Binding to DNA causes structural changes, including folding and interactions with other molecules. The FoxP subfamily of transcription factors in humans is unique...
