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 Mrps5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Ribosomal protein S5, N-terminal domain
  • ribosomal protein S5, bacterial/organelle type
  • Ribosomal protein S5, C-terminal domain
