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 GPHB5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Glycoprotein hormone beta chain homologues
  • G-protein-coupled receptor binding
  • protein binding
  • receptor binding
  • protein heterodimerization
