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 Gucy2g often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • extracellular domain
  • Receptor family ligand binding region
  • Protein kinase (unclassified specificity)
  • Protein tyrosine and serine/threonine kinase
  • enzyme
  • Protein kinase domain
  • Serine/Threonine protein kinases, catalytic domain
  • Protein Kinases, catalytic domain
  • Type 1 periplasmic binding fold superfamily
  • guanylate cyclase
  • Class III nucleotidyl cyclases
  • Adenylyl- / guanylyl cyclase, catalytic domain
  • Tyrosine kinase, catalytic domain
