  Domain Name: TUDOR
Tudor domains are found in many eukaryotic organisms and have been implicated in protein-protein interactions in which methylated protein substrates bind to these domains. For example, the Tudor domain of Survival of Motor Neuron (SMN) binds to symmetrically dimethylated arginines of arginine-glycine (RG) rich sequences found in the C-terminal tails of Sm proteins. The SMN protein is linked to spinal muscular atrophy. Another example is the tandem tudor domains of 53BP1, which bind to histone H4 specifically dimethylated at Lys20 (H4-K20me2). 53BP1 is a key transducer of the DNA damage checkpoint signal.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.

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.
