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 Bphl often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • alpha/beta hydrolase fold
  • poly(ADp-ribose) glycohydrolase
  • alpha/beta hydrolases
  • Alpha/beta hydrolase family
  • Serine aminopeptidase, S33
  • serine hydrolase
  • alpha-amino-acid esterase
