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 DZIP1L often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Crescentin protein
  • Domain of unknown function (DUF4659)
  • protein binding
  • Iguana/Dzip1-like DAZ-interacting protein N-terminal
  • Intermediate filament protein
