Agrin NtA domain. Agrin is a multidomain heparan sulphate proteoglycan, that is a key organiser for the induction of postsynaptic specialisations at the neuromuscular junction. Binding of agrin to basement membranes requires the amino terminal (NtA) domain. This region mediates high affinity interaction with the coiled-coil domain of laminins. The binding of agrin to laminins via the NtA domain is subject to tissue-specific regulation. The NtA domain-containing form of agrin is expressed in non-neuronal cells or in neurons that project to non-neuronal cell such as motor neurons. The structure of this domain is an OB-fold.
No pairwise interactions found for the domain NtA
Tips:  If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position. The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs. Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below. Range on the Protein: Protein ID Protein Position Domain Position:  No Conserved Features/Sites Found for NtA
