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 Rptn often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- S-100/ICaBP type calcium binding domain
- High molecular weight glutenin subunit
- EF-hand domain pair
- EFh
