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 Nostrin often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

  • Fes/CIP4, and EFC/F-BAR homology domain
  • coiled-coil domain
  • protein binding
  • Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs domain
  • Hr1 repeat
  • DNA binding
  • HR1
  • Src Homology 3 domain superfamily
