There is no clear separation between noise and signal. Pfam:PF00053 is very similar, but has 8 instead of 6 conserved cysteines. Includes some cytokine receptors. The EGF domain misses the N-terminus regions of the Ca2+ binding EGF domains (this is t ...
There is no clear separation between noise and signal. Pfam:PF00053 is very similar, but has 8 instead of 6 conserved cysteines. Includes some cytokine receptors. The EGF domain misses the N-terminus regions of the Ca2+ binding EGF domains (this is the main reason of discrepancy between swiss-prot domain start/end and Pfam). The family is hard to model due to many similar but different sub-types of EGF domains. Pfam certainly misses a number of EGF domains.
This entry represents a region of conserved sequence at the N terminus of several Notch ligand proteins. The entry has been extended to correspond to the C2-like domain defined by the protein structure.
This entry represents a EGF-like domain found in delta-like, jagged and Wnt inhibitory factor 1, which are involved in different signalling pathways [1-5].
