This helix-turn-helix (HTH) domain is found twice in human Protein timeless homolog (TIMELESS), which plays an important role in the control of DNA replication, maintenance of replication fork stability, maintenance of genome stability throughout normal DNA replication, DNA repair and in the regulation of the circadian clock [10-13]. This domain binds to both single-stranded DNA and double-stranded DNA, and has high affinity for DNA sequences rich in guanine that form G-quadruplex structures [10]. This domain is also found in TIMELESS from Drosophila melanogaster which is involved in circadian rhythm control.
