Type: | Domain | Name: | Occludin homology domain |
Description: | This represents a conserved region approximately 100 residues long within eukaryotic occludin proteins and the RNA polymerase II elongation factor ELL. Occludin is an integral membrane protein that localises to tight junctions [], while ELL is an elongation factor that can increase the catalytic rate of RNA polymerase II transcription by suppressing transient pausing by polymerase at multiple sites along the DNA []. This shared domain is thought to mediate protein interactions []. | Short Name: | Occludin_ELL |
