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 Baiap2l2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- phospholipid binding
- IRSp53/MIM homology domain
- Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs domain
- identical protein binding
- Src Homology 3 domain superfamily
