Transcription factor bound to DNA. Molecular model showing a MATa1/MATalpha2 homeodomain heterodimer (blue and brown) in complex with a strand of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, green and pink). Transcription factors are proteins that bind to specific sequences of DNA and control the transcription (transfer) of genetic information from DNA to RNA (ribonucleic acid).
