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.
  • serine-rich region
  • pinin/SDK/memA/ protein conserved region
  • coiled-coil domain
  • pinin/SDK conserved region
  • protein binding
