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 NKIRAS2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- small GTP-binding protein domain
- Small GTPase of the Ras superfamily (ill-defined subfamily)
- Ras family
- Rab subfamily of small GTPases
- enzyme
- protein binding
- Ras of Complex, Roc, domain of DAPkinase
- P-loop containing Nucleoside Triphosphate Hydrolases
- Ras subfamily of RAS small GTPases
