Short Name | AZUL_sf |
description | The AZUL or amino-terminal zinc-binding domain of ubiquitin E3a ligase (Ube3A) is found in eukaryotes, and is an unusual zinc-finger domain. The final cysteine is usually mutated in Angelman syndrome patients. It is likely that AZUL plays a role in Ube3A substrate-recognition [].The AZUL domain has a helix-loop-helix architecture with a Zn ion coordinated by four Cys residues arranged in Cys-X(4)-Cys-X(4)-Cys-X(28)-Cys motif []. |
