'''Disintegrin-like Domain ''

Following the M domain and a linker <scene name='Atragin/S-region/1'>S-region</scene>, is the <scene name='Atragin/D_arm_shoulder/1'>Disintegrin-like</scene>(D) domain. This domain is thought to play an important role in the relative orientation of the M and C domains in P-III SVMPs (Think back to C-shaped versus I-shaped). Atragin maintains the C-shaped ~~arhcitexture~~ as its D-shoulder domain has three disulfide bonds, and its D-arm domain conatins another 3 disulfide bonds, which is similar to other C-shaped proteins <ref name=Igarashi>PMID: 17485084</ref><ref name=Takeda>PMID: 16688218</ref>.
