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 Lrrc46 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- leucine-rich repeat
- protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 42
- Leucine rich repeat
- Leucine Rich repeats (2 copies)
- Leucine-rich repeat, SDS22-like subfamily
