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 IGHG3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • CH3 domain (from immunoglobulin)
  • hinge domain
  • heavy chain domain, constant
  • Fc domain
