Many different zinc binding modules have been identified.
If the IREs function as composite binding modules for multiple transcription factors, then the chicken IRE-like element might contain a subset of the binding modules found in mammalian IREs as well as distinct modules.
It shares structural similarity with carbohydrate binding modules (CBM) of prokaryotic glycosyl hydrolases.
These proteins act as phosphoserine/phosphothreonine binding modules.
These binding modules are termed short linear motifs or SLiMs.
It may be strongly connected with creating κB binding modules.
This creates binding sites for phosphotyrosine binding modules on signalling proteins, such as SH2 and phosphotyrosine-binding domains [ 1].
CBM - Carbohydrate binding module CD - Catalytic domain.
These include: Calcium binding (module 2); cell adhesion (module 3); and metallopeptidase activity (module 4).
The natively carbohydrate-binding module-less TaCel7A was provided with the carbohydrate binding module of TrCel7A [ 34, 44].
