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 TBC1D21 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Rab-GTPase-TBC domain
  • actin binding
  • Domain in Tre-2, BUB2p, and Cdc16p
  • enzyme binding
  • GTPase activator
  • protein binding
