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 Fcgrt 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
  • Immunoglobulin C1-set domain
  • Class I Histocompatibility antigen, domains alpha 1 and 2
  • IgG binding
  • N-linked glycosylation site
  • immunoglobulin domain
  • IgG receptor
  • protein binding
  • transmembrane receptor
  • beta-2-microglobulin binding
