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 Uvssa often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • enzyme inhibitor activity
  • protein binding activity, bridging
  • Uncharacterized conserved protein (DUF2043)
  • enzyme binding
  • central domain
  • protein binding
