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 human CNN1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Calponin homology domain
  • actin binding
  • Calponin family repeat
  • calponin homology (CH) domain superfamily
  • protein binding
