Accession ID Name Pfam Type
PF02010 REJ domain family

The REJ (Receptor for Egg Jelly) domain is found in PKD1 Swiss:P98161, and the sperm receptor for egg jelly Swiss:Q26627. The function of this domain is unknown. The domain is 600 amino acids long so is probably composed of multiple structural domains. There are six completely conserved cysteine residues that may form disulphide bridges. This region contains tandem PKD-like domains.
