Descriptor English: Cystine-Knot Miniproteins
Descriptor Spanish: Miniproteínas Nodales de Cistina
Descriptor miniproteínas con nudo de cistina
Scope note: Familia de pequeñas proteínas estructuralmente relacionadas que forman un patrón estable de pliegues terciarios que se ve sustentado por una serie de enlaces disulfuro. La disposición de los enlaces disulfuro entre las porciones de CISTEINA da lugar a una estructura anudada que es única de esta familia de proteínas.

Tree number(s): D12.644.132
D12.776.217
RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D057771
Scope note: A structurally-related family of small proteins that form a stable tertiary fold pattern which is supported by a series of disulfide bonds. The arrangement of disulfide bonds between the CYSTEINE moieties results in a knotted structure which is unique to this family of proteins.
