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 Taf5l often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

  • TAF5 N-terminal domain 2
  • transcription regulator
  • transcription co-activator
  • WD40 repeats
