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

  • EF hand associated
  • Small GTPase of the Ras superfamily (ill-defined subfamily)
  • Ras family
  • Rab subfamily of small GTPases
