PMID: 9118945 by Fernandez-Silva P., et al. The human mitochondrial transcription termination factor (mTERF) is a multizipper protein but binds to DNA as a monomer, with evidence pointing to intramolecular leucine zipper interactions.
PMID: 15087485 by Prieto-Martin A., et al. Phosphorylation of rat mitochondrial transcription termination factor (mTERF) is required for transcription termination but not for binding to DNA.
