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 RPS4Y2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- 6-pyruvoyl-tetrahydropterin synthase related domain (membrane protein)
- RS4NT (NUC023) domain
- Ribosomal family S4e
- 40S ribosomal protein S4 C-terminus
