The ATP binding domain shows impressive structural and functional similarity to the Dynamin GTP binding domain which is known to facilitate clathrin-coated vesicle budding. Given this resemblance, several researchers tend to consider the EHD protein family a sub-group that falls within the Dynamin protein superfamily. When ATP binds to this ...
The intracellular (or cytoplasmic) domain of the receptor interacts with the interior of the cell or organelle, relaying the signal. There are two fundamental paths for this interaction: The intracellular domain communicates via protein-protein interactions against effector proteins, which in turn pass a signal to the destination.
The fact that there is no standard definition of what a domain really is has meant that domain assignments have varied enormously, with each researcher using a unique set of criteria. [67] A structural domain is a compact, globular sub-structure with more interactions within it than with the rest of the protein. [68]
In eukaryotes, SRP binds to the signal sequence of a newly synthesized peptide as it emerges from the ribosome. [1] This binding leads to the slowing of protein synthesis known as "elongation arrest", a conserved function of SRP that facilitates the coupling of the protein translation and the protein translocation processes. [5]
In a new development in the field of antibody-based therapeutics, the Fc region of immunoglobulins has been engineered to contain an antigen-binding site. [7] This type of antigen-binding fragment is called Fcab.
Lipid raft organization, region (1) is a standard lipid bilayer, while region (2) is a lipid raft. The plasma membranes of cells contain combinations of glycosphingolipids, cholesterol and protein receptors organized in glycolipoprotein lipid microdomains termed lipid rafts.
Another commonly found domain is an armadillo repeat region (ARR) located in the FH3 domain. The FH2 domain, has been shown by X-ray crystallography to have an elongated, crescent shape containing three helical subdomains. [17] [18] Formins also directly bind to microtubules via their FH2 domain. This interaction is important in promoting the ...
