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 Gtf2h1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • domain in transcription factors and synapse-associated proteins
  • transcription regulator
  • BSD domain
  • chromatin binding
  • protein binding
  • Pleckstrin homology-like domain
  • thyroid hormone receptor binding
  • TFIIH p62 subunit, N-terminal domain
