Protein Domain : Axin interactor dorsalization-associated protein, C-terminal

Primary Identifier  IPR025939 Type  Domain
Short Name  Aida_C
description  The axin interaction dorsalization-associated (Aida) protein was characterised in zebrafish as a protein that utilizes its C-terminal region to interact with axis formation inhibitor (Axin), which is a microtubule-interacting scaffold protein for several distinct signalling proteins in the Wnt cascade. The C-terminal region of the Aida protein is a distinct version of the C2 domain. This Aida-type C2 domain is found in the C-terminal region of the proteins and it is critical for interactions with cytoskeletal in the context of cellular adhesion points, thus, it is combined with diverse domains related to cytoskeletal functions, e.g. EF hands, coiled coils, IQ calmodulin-binding motifs, ankyrin repeats and myosin head motor domain, or with a second lipid-binding domain, e.g. the PH domain. The Aida-type C2 domain is found only in the metazoan, choanoflagellate, chromist and chlorophyte lineages [, ].This domain has predominantly a β-strand globular fold composed of an antiparallel β-sandwich with two β-sheets, and three short α-helices to stabilize the conformation [].
