Scope note: Elementos estructurales tridimensionales de las proteínas formados por una combinación de estructuras secundarias. Incluyen los motivos o SECUENCIAS HÉLICE-ASA-HÉLICE y los DEDOS DE ZINC. Los motivos son típicamente las regiones más conservados de los DOMINIOS PROTEICOS y son esenciales para la función del dominio. El mismo motivo puede encontrarse en proteínas o enzimas con diferentes funciones.

Scope note: Three-dimensional protein structural elements that are composed of a combination of secondary structures. They include HELIX-LOOP-HELIX MOTIFS and ZINC FINGERS. Motifs are typically the most conserved regions of PROTEIN DOMAINS and are critical for domain function. However, the same motif may occur in proteins or enzymes with different functions.
