Hi Shankar,

Another fascinating example might be Dscam (Down Syndrome cell adhesion
molecule) with multiple Ig like domains and Fibronectin type III domains.
Different splice isoforms are expressed in different nerves, and it serves
as a recognition module, same repels, different ones attract.

Not all the domains have been solved yet, and looking at the functional
diversity, it is the small differences which are interesting in such case.

There are also examples of "tandem" SH2, FHA, BRCT repeats, but it depends
on how strict you are with the "identical".

Cheers, Partha
