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 Klrb1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • extracellular domain
  • signaling receptor activity
  • C-type lectin (CTL)/C-type lectin-like (CTLD) domain
  • cytoplasmic domain
  • ectodomain
  • Lectin C-type domain
  • protein binding
  • carbohydrate binding
  • transmembrane receptor
