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 Plekhb1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- transmembrane domain
- PH domain
- protein homodimerization
- E7 binding domain
- protein binding
- Pleckstrin homology-like domain
- membrane-proximal domain
