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 rat Lin54 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- nucleic acid binding
- protein binding
- Tesmin/TSO1-like CXC domain, cysteine-rich domain
- AT DNA binding
- DNA-binding cysteine-rich domain of male-specific lethal 2 and related proteins
