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 CRYBG2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- Ricin-type beta-trefoil lectin domain
- Family of unknown function (DUF5585)
- ricin B-type lectin domain, beta-trefoil fold
- Beta/Gamma crystallin
