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 Uggt2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- thioredoxin-like domain
- catalytic domain
- Glucosyltransferase 24
- UDP-glucose:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase
- enzyme
- protein binding
