The WW domain (also known as the rsp5-domain or WWP repeating motif) is a modular protein domain that mediates specific interactions with protein ligands. This domain is found in a number of unrelated signaling and structural proteins and may be repeated up to four times in some proteins. Apart from binding preferentially to proteins that are proline-rich with particular proline-motifs [AP]-P-P-[AP]-Y some WW domains bind to phosphoserine- phosphothreonine-containing motifs.
