Protein domain: Regions & Measurement

In molecular biology, a protein domain is a region of a protein's polypeptide chain that is self-stabilizing and folds independently from the rest. Each domain forms a compact, folded three-dimensional structure. Many proteins consist of several domains, and a domain may appear in a variety of different proteins. Molecular evolution uses domains as…
