In molecular biology, Vitamin D binding protein domain III protein domain is predominantly found in Vitamin D binding proteins (DBP). Vitamin D-binding protein (DBP)(also referred to as Gc-globulin) is synthesized primarily in the liver. This entry outlines the domain III of DBP. Domain III (amino acid 379–458) is G-actin binding region located in the C-terminal. Domain (amino acids 373 to 403). This protein is found ubiquitously in vivo in significant quantities and can be detected in all fluid compartments.[1] During acute phase inflammatory response, DBP levels tend to increase.
