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 mouse Rad17 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • AAA ATPase domain
  • helical lid domain of clamp loader-like AAA+ proteins
  • protein binding activity, bridging
  • Rad17 P-loop domain
  • checkpoint protein rad24
  • enzyme
  • protein binding
