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 Faap20 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • UBZ domain
  • Ubiquitin-binding zinc-finger
  • protein binding activity, bridging
  • protein binding
  • FAAP20 FANCA interaction domain
