GO Term : GO:0000400 four-way junction DNA binding GO

Namespace:  molecular_function Obsolete:  false
description  Interacting selectively and non-covalently with DNA containing four-way junctions, also known as Holliday junctions, a structure where two DNA double strands are held together by reciprocal exchange of two of the four strands, one strand each from the two original helices.
