| Description: | It is an interaction domain identified as being similar to the C-terminal protein kinase catalytic fold (C lobe). Its presence at the N terminus of signalling proteins and the absence of the active-site residues in the catalytic and activation loops suggest that it folds independently and is likely to be non-catalytic. The occurrence of KIND only in metazoa implies that it has evolved from the catalytic protein kinase domain into an interaction domain possibly by keeping the substrate-binding features |
| Interpro abstract (IPR011019): | The KIND (kinase non-catalytic C-lobe domain) is a putative protein interaction domain, which has been identified as being similar to the C-terminal protein kinase catalytic fold (C lobe). The presence of the KIND domain at the N terminus of signalling proteins and the absence of the active site residues in the catalytic and activation loops suggest that it folds independently and is likely to be non-catalytic. The occurrence of the domain only in metazoa implies that it has evolved from the catalytic protein kinase domain into an interaction domain possibly by keeping the substrate-binding features [(PUBMED:12877999), (PUBMED:16099729)]. |
