Cys14 redox sensing Cys, has lower pKa of 6.36 [Pubmed|22238377][SW|Domains]
5 alpha helices, 2 beta sheets, MarR-fold with wHTH motif, alpha4 major groove recognition helix, beta2 and 3 form the wing; alpha5 dimer interface [Pubmed|22238377]Modification
oxidized to Cys14-Cys49' intersubunit disulfides by disulfide stress [Pubmed|22238377]Cys14 and Cys49' are about 8-9 Angstrm apart in reduced HypR-Dimer, oxidation moves the major groove recognition alpha4 helices of the HypR dimer about 4 Angstroem towards each other that leads to activation of HypR [Pubmed|22238377]Structure
