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 Eci1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- dodecenoyl-CoA D-isomerase
- carbon-carbon double bond transposing intramolecular oxidoreductase
- crotonase-like
- enzyme
- identical protein binding
- Enoyl-CoA hydratase/isomerase
