| - | The PEST domain is adjacent to the binding domain and has been found mutated in leukemia patients. It is highly polar due to the abundance of proline, glutamate, serine, and threonine. Proteins with a PEST region typically have a short half-life of under 2 hours. It is hypothesized that the PEST region is a tag for fast degradation of the protein. | + | The PEST domain is adjacent to the binding domain and has been found mutated in leukemia patients.<ref>Mueller, B.
