  Domain Name: FHIT
FHIT (fragile histidine family): FHIT proteins, related to the HIT family carry a motif HxHxH/Qxx (x, is a hydrophobic amino acid), On the basis of sequence, substrate specificity, structure, evolution and mechanism, HIT proteins are classified into three branches: the Hint branch, which consists of adenosine 5' -monophosphoramide hydrolases, the Fhit branch, that consists of diadenosine polyphosphate hydrolases, and the GalT branch consisting of specific nucloside monophosphate transferases. Fhit plays a very important role in the development of tumours. Infact, Fhit deletions are among the earliest and most frequent genetic alterations in the development of tumours.

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.
