| Rel Homology Domain (RHD) | The N-terminal ~300 amino acids comprise the RHD, which mediates DNA binding, dimerization, and interaction with IκB inhibitors |
| Transactivation Domain (TAD) | The C-terminal region contains two TADs (TAD1 and TAD2) that recruit transcriptional coactivators including CBP/p300 |
| RHD | Enables dimerization with p50, p52, c-Rel, or RELB to form functional NF-κB dimers |
