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 LVRN often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- Peptidase M1 N-terminal domain
- Peptidase family M1 domain
- ERAP1-like C-terminal domain
- peptidase
- protein binding
- peptidase GluZincin family
