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 Vps13d often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • UBA domain-like superfamily
  • SHR-binding domain of vacuolar-sorting associated protein 13
  • Vacuolar-sorting-associated 13 protein C-terminal
  • Repeating coiled region of VPS13
  • N-terminal region of Chorein or VPS13
  • Vacuolar sorting-associated protein 13, N-terminal
  • ricin B-type lectin domain, beta-trefoil fold
  • lipid transfer domain
  • transporter
