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 mouse Adap2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • binding protein
  • phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate binding
  • Putative GTP-ase activating proteins for the small GTPase, ARF
  • phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate binding
  • PH domain
  • protein binding
  • Pleckstrin homology-like domain
  • GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for the ADP ribosylation factors (ARFs)
  • phosphatidylinositol binding
  • Putative GTPase activating protein for Arf
