This domain is found in a variety of transcriptional regulatory proteins. It is related to bacterial periplasmic binding proteins, although this domain is unlikely to be found in the periplasm. This domain acts as a sensor binding small molecule ligands that the DNA-binding domain responds to. This domain recognises Sugars, sugar phosphates, sugar acids and purines (Matilla et. al., FEMS Microbiology Reviews, fuab043, 45, 2021, 1. https://doi.org/10.1093/femsre/fuab043).
