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 L3mbtl1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

  • Present in Drosophila Scm, l(3)mbt, and vertebrate SCML2
  • SAM (Sterile alpha motif )
  • Zinc finger, C2HC type
  • protein binding activity, bridging
  • chromatin binding
  • protein domain specific binding
