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 Prickle3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • LIM is a small protein-protein interaction domain, containing two zinc fingers
  • PET domain
  • protein binding
  • PET (Prickle Espinas Testin)
