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 PRPF40A often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- FF domain
- Domain with 2 conserved Trp (W) residues
- Contains two conserved F residues
- WW
- protein binding
