Figure 2.
Matrix comparison of the frequency of amino acid — base pair combinations for the Lac repressor — operator binding partners. Possible nucleotides are listed down the left side and amino acids are listed across the top. Residue 22 interacts with operator position 6 (A) and residues 18 (B) and 17 (C) interact with positions 5 and 4, respectively. High frequency interactions are boxed.
