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 Nav1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Ezrin/radixin/moesin, alpha-helical domain
  • enzyme
  • protein binding
  • P-loop containing Nucleoside Triphosphate Hydrolases
  • ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities
