PDZ domain 1 of PDZ domain-containing RING finger protein 4 (PDZRN4), PDZRN3-B, and related domains
PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 1 of PDZRN4, PDZRN3-B, and related domains. PDZRN4 (also known as ligand of numb protein X 4, and SEMACAP3-like protein) contains an N-terminal RING domain and two tandem repeat PDZ domains. It is involved in the progression of cancer, including human liver cancer and breast cancer, and may contribute to the tumorigenesis of rectal adenocarcinoma. Danio rerio PDZRN3-B may participate in neurogenesis: the first PDZ domain of Danio rerio Pdzrn3 interacts with Kidins220 (Kinase D-interacting substrate 220 kD, also named Ankyrin Repeat-Rich Membrane Spanning), a crucial mediator of signal transduction in neural tissues. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands. This PDZRN4-like family PDZ1 domain is a canonical PDZ domain containing six beta-strands A-F and two alpha-helices (alpha-helix 1 and 2), arranged in the order: beta-strands A, B, C, alpha-helix 1, beta-strands D, E, alpha-helix 2 and beta-strand F.

Comment:based on canonical PDZ domains with structure
Comment:PDZ domains specifically recognize and bind to short C-terminal peptide motifs, but can also recognize internal peptide motifs and certain lipids
