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

- Middle or third domain of peptidase_M16
- protein binding
- enzyme regulator activity
- Insulinase (Peptidase family M16)
