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 Hsdl2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- Rossmann-fold NAD(P)(+)-binding proteins
- SDR family mycofactocin-dependent oxidoreductase
- SCP-2 sterol transfer family
- pteridine reductase
- enzyme
- short chain dehydrogenase
