The FHA domain.

The forkhead-associated (FHA) domain is a small protein module recently shown to recognize phosphothreonine epitopes on proteins. It is present in a diverse range of proteins in eukaryotic cells, such as kinases, phosphatases, kinesins, transcription factors, RNA-binding proteins, and metabolic enzymes. It is also found in a number of bacterial proteins. This suggests that FHA domain-mediated phospho-dependent assembly of protein complexes is an ancient and widespread regulatory mechanism.
