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 ACY3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- Succinylglutamate desuccinylase / Aspartoacylase family
- aminoacylase
- enzyme
- protein binding
- M14 family of metallocarboxypeptidases and related proteins
