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 Xpo4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- enzyme binding
- protein binding
- Importin-beta N-terminal domain
- nuclear export signal receptor
- transporter
