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 Kif24 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- Kinesin motor, catalytic domain
- microtubule binding
- Myosin and Kinesin motor domain
- SAM (Sterile alpha motif )
- Kinesin motor domain
