 X8Possibly involved in carbohydrate binding | |
|---|---|
| SMART ACC: | SM000768 |
| Description: | The X8 domain, which may be involved in carbohydrate binding, is found in an Olive pollen antigen as well as at the C terminus of family 17 glycosyl hydrolases. It contains 6 conserved cysteine residues which presumably form three disulfide bridges. |
