  Domain Name: vWA_CTRP
CTRP for CS protein-TRAP-related protein: Adhesion of Plasmodium to host cells is an important phenomenon in parasite invasion and in malaria associated pathology.CTRP encodes a protein containing a putative signal sequence followed by a long extracellular region of 1990 amino acids, a transmembrane domain, and a short cytoplasmic segment. The extracellular region of CTRP contains two separated adhesive domains. The first domain contains six 210-amino acid-long homologous VWA domain repeats. The second domain contains seven repeats of 87-60 amino acids in length, which share similarities with the thrombospondin type 1 domain found in a variety of adhesive molecules. Finally, CTRP also contains consensus motifs found in the superfamily of haematopoietin receptors. The VWA domains in these proteins likely mediate protein-protein interactions.
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.
