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 Rnf17 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- Tudor domain
- Protein present in Fab1, YOTB, Vac1, and EEA1
- PHD finger superfamily
- identical protein binding
- Tudor domain superfamily
