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 Cntn5 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
- Integrase zinc binding domain
- FN3
- immunoglobulin domain
- Integrase core domain
- Immunoglobulin like
- Immunoglobulin I-set domain
- Fibronectin type 3 domain
- Integrase DNA binding domain
- Immunoglobulin V-set domain
- T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 delta chain
