Key interaction distances at each primary kink site, with a 4.0 Å distance cutoff. Distances in parentheses are greater then 4.0 Å, but represent the nearest distance for that interaction. Unless noted, CAP is wild-type sequence and the DNA sequence at the primary kink site is 5′-T4G5T6G7A8-3′ / 5′-T′4C′5A′6C′7A′8-3′.
