DBDs A-F, that bind RPA to single-stranded DNA.

DBDs A, B, C and F are located on RPA1, DBD D is located on RPA2, and DBD E is located on RPA3. DBDs C, D, and E make up the trimerization core of the protein with flexible linker regions connecting them all together. Due to these flexible linker regions RPA is considered highly flexible and this supports the dynamic binding that RPA is able to achieve. Because of this dynamic binding,
