Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Cdyl2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- Chromatin organization modifier domain
- histone binding
- CHROMO (CHRromatin Organization Modifier) domains and chromo shadow domains
- crotonase-like
- protein binding
- Chromo (CHRromatin organization MOdifier) domain
- Enoyl-CoA hydratase/isomerase
