| Type | Domain |
| Description | This domain is found in proteins from nematodes, including SXP/RAL-2 family protein Ani s 5 (ANIS5) from Anisakis simplex, and comprises two conserved motifs: SXP1 and SXP2 [ ]. Although the function of this domain is not clear, structural information from ANIS5 revealed an alpha helical arrangement with a Calmodulin-like fold. Functional studies indicates that ANIS5 can bind magnesium and calcium, suggesting that this domain plays a role in cation binding []. These proteins are interesting targets to develop control strategies against the diseases caused by parasites. |
