In contrast to them, they form a rather irregular, but compact structure without recognizable secondary structure elements. At least some C2HC zinc fingers bind sequence-specifically to DNA, where the whole C2HC zinc finger sites in the major groove. (PMID 14744132, PMID 18073212) – This class should not be mixed up with CCHC zinc fingers, which follow the signature C--C----H----C (i.e., having much shorter spacing between the leading two C and the H), and are mostly RNA-binders."
