"A zinc finger is a small protein structural motif that is characterized by the coordination of one or more zinc ions in order to stabilize the fold."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_finger
Zinc fingers bind DNA and act as transcription factors. This zinc finger binds a zinc ion through two cysteine and two histidine residues.
This zinc finger model is based on PDB model 3IUF:
