fourth Tudor domain found in Tudor domain-containing protein 15 (TDRD15) and similar proteins
TDRD15 is an uncharacterized Tudor domain-containing protein that contains seven Tudor domains. This model corresponds to the fourth one. The Tudor domain binds to proteins with dimethylated arginine or lysine residues, and may also bind methylated histone tails to facilitate protein-protein interactions.
Feature 1:putative peptide binding site [polypeptide binding site]
Evidence:
Comment:based on the structures of other Tudor-like family proteins with bound methylated/dimethylated peptides
Comment:In general, the Tudor domain binds to proteins with dimethylated arginine or lysine residues, and may also bind methylated histone tails to facilitate protein-protein interactions.
