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 DIP2A often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- transcription regulator
- AMP-binding enzyme
- DMAP1-binding Domain
- Adenylate forming domain, Class I superfamily
- acetate-CoA ligase
- protein binding
- amino acid adenylation domain
