| Type: | Domain | Name: | Methuselah ectodomain, domain 2 |
| Description: | Drosophila Methuselah (Mth) mutants have a 35% increase in average lifespan and increased resistance to several forms of stress, including heat, starvation, and oxidative damage. The protein affected by this mutation is related to G protein-coupled receptors of the secretin receptor family. Mth, like secretin receptor family members, has a large N-terminal ectodomain, which may constitute the ligand binding site []. This entry represents a structural subdomain found at the C-termimus of the Methusela ectodomain. | Short Name: | Methusela_ecto_dom_2 |
