HMG-box

This superfamily of transcription factors with β-scaffold DNA-binding domains with minor groove contacts comprises 11 subclasses: RHR, STAT, p53,  MADS box, β-Barrel α-helix transcription factors, TATA binding proteins, HMG-box, Heteromeric CCAAT factors, grainyhead, Cold-shock domain factors, and Runt[1]. Late SV40 Factor (LSF), also known as alpha-globin transcription factor CP2 (TFCP2), functions as part of the SSP(stage selector protein) complex, and binds a variety of cellular and viral promoters including fibrinogen, alpha-globin, SV40 and HIV-1 promoters[2].
