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 Rhpn2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Protein-interacting Bro1-like domain of mammalian Alix and related domains
  • Domain present in PSD-95, Dlg, and ZO-1/2
  • BRO1-like domain
  • canonical PDZ domain
  • PDZ domain
  • Rho-binding domain
  • Hr1 repeat
  • HR1
