Pseudo group of domains that do not map to PFam family profiles. Domains inside should not be considered as in one family.
beta duplicates or obligate multimersbeta duplicates or monomers associate together to form a compact domain
beta complex topologybeta domains with complex and unique topology that cannot be described as barrel or sandwich or meander
