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 Dr1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • histone fold domain (HFD) superfamily
  • glutamine-alanine rich domain
  • transcription regulator
  • TBP binding domain
  • protein binding
  • general RNA polymerase II transcription factor
  • TATA-binding protein binding
