PWWP domain is only found in eukaryotes, from a yeast to a human. The number of PWWP containing protein is also varying on species; the human has 20. The loyal family has a common structural characteristic, three conserved β-strands.<ref>Rona GB, Eleutherio EC, Pinheiro AS.

The most conservative section is the PWWP sequence, which it is named after.
