GO Term : GO:0000403 Y-form DNA binding GO

Namespace:  molecular_function Obsolete:  false
description  Interacting selectively and non-covalently with segment of DNA shaped like a Y. This shape occurs when DNA contains a region of paired double-stranded DNA on one end and a region of unpaired DNA strands on the opposite end.
