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 Usp11 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • ubiquitin thiolesterase
  • cysteine endopeptidase
  • peptidase
  • ubiquitin-specific protease
  • DUSP domain
