The FYVE domain is an approx. 80 amino acid motif that binds to the phosphoinositide PtdIns3P with high specificity and affinity.
Domain
A discrete, independantly folded region of a protein. Different functions of a multifunctional protein are usually localized in separate domains.
Domain: A discrete portion of a protein with its own function. The combination of domains in a single protein determines its overall function.
Double helix: The shape that two linear strands of DNA assume when bonded together.

domain
A taxonomic category above the kingdom level; the three domains are Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya.

Domain: Region of a protein with a distinct tertiary structure and characteristic activity (for example, the membrane distal and membrane proximal domains of an MHC molecule).
Domain An independently folded unit in the tertiary structure of a polypeptide chain; may contain a number of supersecondary structures. In multienzyme complexes, each domain may carry out one or more catalytic reactions.
[edit] Domains
Most myosin molecules are composed of both a head and a tail domain.
protein domain Protein domains are conserved regions of amino acid /structural similarity in protein sequences. Domains generally represent functional units having some form of biological activity.

Homeodomain
A 3-D model of a protein with a homeodomain, a "helix-turn-helix" motif that acts as a transcription factor by binding directly to DNA to turn on other genes.

These domains reflect whether cells have nuclei or not as well as differences in cell exteriors. There is also a series of intracellular "parasites" that are progressively less alive in terms of being metabolically active: ...
a homeodomain transcription factor expressed in the dorsal lip of the blastopore; may be a key factor is specifying these cells as the organizer of the embryo.
Organisms in the Domain Bacteria lack membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus and endoplasmic reticulum that typify the third domain, the Eukaryota. All members of Domain bacteria are prokaryotes.
1999, chapter 16, used genetic programming to design an algorithm to identify transmembrane domains of a protein.

Kingdoms fall under the larger grouping called DOMAINS. There are three domains used in modern classification. The domain EUKARYA is used for all eukaryotic species that include protists, fungi, plants, and animals.
One of the two prokaryotic domains of living things. The other prokaryotic domain is the Archaea.
A phylogenetic tree of all living things, based on rRNA gene data, showing the separation of the three domains bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes as described initially by Carl Woese.
During interphase, looped domains may be attached to protein supporting structures on the inside of the nuclear membrane. Some of the DNA is coiled and compacted but other parts are not.

To the great relief of those of us involved in it, and I think the joy of the general public, we finished that project in 2003, more than two years ahead of schedule, and under budget, and produced all of this data in the public domain where, ...
