Primary Identifier | IPR036337 | Type | Homologous_superfamily |
Short Name | Matrilin_cc_sf |
description | This entry represents a short domain found the matrilin (cartilage matrix) proteins. It forms a coiled coil structure and contains a single cysteine residue at its start which is likely to form a di-sulphide bridge with a corresponding cysteine in an upstream EGF domain, thereby spanning the VWA domain of the protein ().This domain is likely to be responsible for protein trimerisation [, ]. |
