In molecular biology the
DM domain
is a protein domain first discovered in the doublesex proteins of
Drosophila melanogaster
and is also seen in
C. elegans
and mammalian proteins.[1]
In
D. melanogaster
the doublesex gene controls somatic sexual differentiation by producing alternatively spliced mRNAs encoding related sexual activity-specific polypeptides.[2]
These proteins are believed to office as transcription factors on downstream sex-determination genes, especially on neuroblast differentiation and yolk protein genes transcription.[3]
[4]
The DM domain binds DNA as a dimer, allowing the recognition of pseudopalindromic sequences .[2]
[5]
[half dozen]
The NMR analysis of the DSX DM domain
[half-dozen]
revealed a novel zinc module containing ‘intertwined’ CCHC and HCCC zinc-binding sites. The recognition of the DNA requires the carboxy-last basic tail which contacts the small-scale groove of the target sequence.
Proteins with this domain
[edit]
Proteins with the DM domain are found in many model organisms. Many
C. elegans
Mab
proteins comprise this domain, the best-known ane being mab-three.[1]
Human proteins containing this domain include DMRT1, DMRT2, DMRT3, DMRTA1, DMRTA2, DMRTB1, and DMRTC2; each of these take a mouse homolog.[7]

DMRT1 homologs have an additional mutual domain C-terminal to the DM domain. This domain is only constitute in bony vertebrates, and neither its structure nor role is unknown.[8]

Jpred predicts the man version of the department to be mostly coils; it also suggests a weak similarity to
PDB: 6BO4 by BLAST.[9]

DMRTA proteins have an boosted motif in their C-termina. This motif, ubiquitous in eukaryotes, has an unknown office. Information technology is similar in sequence to some ubiquitin-associated motifs.[10]
