DNA-bending protein, molecular model C014 / 0395

DNA-bending protein. Molecular model of the Hbb protein (yellow and orange) bound to DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, blue). This protein is found in the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferiis, which causes Lyme disease. It bends double stranded DNA molecules over 180 degrees. It is thought that Hbb helps other proteins, such as those involved in DNA replication, transcription and recombination, bind to the DNA

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular model of a DNA-bending protein, specifically the Hbb protein found in Borrelia burgdorferiis bacteria responsible for causing Lyme disease. The vibrant colors highlight the binding of this protein to DNA, represented by its striking blue hue. The significance of this DNA-bending protein lies in its ability to bend double-stranded DNA molecules over an impressive 180 degrees. Scientists believe that Hbb plays a crucial role in assisting other proteins involved in vital processes like DNA replication, transcription, and recombination to bind effectively with the DNA. With its complex structure and biological implications, this artwork offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of genetics and microbiology. It serves as a reminder of how microscopic organisms can have profound effects on our health and well-being. Ramon Andrade's skillful illustration not only captures the beauty of this molecular model but also highlights its importance within the realm of biochemistry and biology. This image is more than just art; it represents groundbreaking scientific research that contributes to our understanding of prokaryotic genomes and nucleoid-associated proteins. As we admire this stunning visual representation, let us appreciate both the artistic talent behind it and the invaluable knowledge it imparts about these essential components at work within bacterial cells.
