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 Rph3al often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • FYVE domain like superfamily
  • LIM-domain binding
  • cytoskeletal protein binding
  • Rab binding domain
  • PHD finger superfamily
  • protein binding
