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 Ppm1k often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

  • Protein phosphatase 2C
  • protein serine/threonine phosphatase
  • phosphatase
  • protein binding
  • Serine/threonine phosphatases, family 2C, catalytic domain
  • manganese ion binding
  • PP2Cc
