Zinc Finger Motif

Zinc atom stabilizes the structure/fold by coordination bonds

Each motif contains about 30-50 amino acids

Contains regular patterns of Cys / His, which coordinate with Zinc atom

Contains one helix and two small anti-parallel beta sheets in each finger

Zinc holds helix and beta-sheets together

Helix binds to DNA

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

Broad-sense heritability range from 0 to 1.

0 =all of the phenotypic variance results from environmental variation.

1 =all of the phenotypic variance results from differences in genotype.
