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 Col25a1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • extracellular domain
  • NC1 domain
  • nc3 domain
  • Collagen triple helix repeat (20 copies)
  • coiled-coil domain
  • beta-amyloid binding
  • heparin binding
  • identical protein binding
