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 Zgrf1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

  • GRF zinc finger
  • enzyme
  • protein binding
  • P-loop containing Nucleoside Triphosphate Hydrolases
  • AAA domain
