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 Dtx4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Domain in Deltex and TRIP12 homologues
  • ubiquitin protein ligase activity
  • RING finger (Really Interesting New Gene) domain and U-box domain superfamily
  • Ring finger
  • ubiquitin-protein transferase activity
  • WWE domain
  • enzyme
  • Domain found at the C-terminus of deltex-like
  • Zinc finger, C3HC4 type (RING finger)
