TY - JOUR A1 - Gierer, Alfred T1 - Model for DNA and protein interactions and the function of the operator T2 - Nature 212 (1966) p 1480-1481 N2 - The short paper introduces the concept of possible branches of double-stranded DNA (later sometimes called palindromes): Certain sequences of nucleotides may be followed, after a short unpaired stretch, by a complementary sequence in reversed order, such that each DNA strand can fold back on itself, and the DNA assumes a cruciform or tree-like structure. This is postulated to interact with regulatory proteins.
