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 NSG1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • D1 dopamine receptor-interacting protein (calcyon)
  • protein binding
  • receptor binding
  • ionotropic glutamate receptor binding
