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 Abtb2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- histone fold domain (HFD) superfamily
- Ankyrin repeats (many copies)
- Broad-Complex, Tramtrack and Bric a brac
- BTB_POZ
- Ankyrin repeats (3 copies)
- BTB/POZ domain
- protein binding
- BACK (BTB and C-terminal Kelch) domain
- Ankyrin repeat
- ankyrin repeats
