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 Gabpb2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

- Ankyrin repeats (many copies)
- double-stranded DNA binding
- nucleic acid binding
- Ankyrin repeats (3 copies)
