Preferred term

Proline-Rich Protein Domains  

Type

  • mesh:Descriptor

Definition

  • Protein domains that are enriched in PROLINE. The cyclical nature of proline causes the peptide bonds it forms to have a limited degree of conformational mobility. Therefore the presence of multiple prolines in close proximity to each other can convey a distinct conformational arrangement to a peptide chain.
