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 Myo7b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • FERM central domain
  • Band 4.1 homologues
  • Myosin and Kinesin motor domain
  • peptidase
  • protein binding
  • Pleckstrin homology-like domain
  • MyTH4 domain
  • Myosin head (motor domain)
  • Src Homology 3 domain superfamily
  • IQ calmodulin-binding motif
  • Calmodulin-binding motif
  • Ubl1_cv_Nsp3_N-like
  • tail domain
  • FERM domain B-lobe
  • Myosin
