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 MOXD1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

  • Domon-like ligand-binding domains
  • DOMON domain
  • Copper type II ascorbate-dependent monooxygenase, N-terminal domain
  • enzyme
