Lin28 consists of two domains: a cold shock domain and a <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_718/Zfd/1'>pair of CCHC zinc fingers</scene>.
As mentioned in the description does Lin28 consist of two domains: a cold shock domain and a <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_718/Zfd/1'>pair of CCHC zinc fingers</scene>.
Both are RNA binding domains. The cold-shock domain (CSD) at the N-terminal part of Lin28A, residues 37-112<ref>Loughlin, F. E., Gebert, L. F. R., Towbin, H., Brunschweiger, A., Hall, J. and Allain, F. H.-T.: ''Structural basis of pre-let-7 miRNA recognition by the zinc knuckles of pluripotency factor Lin28'' In: Nature Structural & Molecular Biology 19, S. 84-89, Dezember 11, 2012</ref>, interacts with a loop, with a GNGAY motif, of the RNA.

H.-T.: ''Structural basis of pre-let-7 miRNA recognition by the zinc knuckles of pluripotency factor Lin28'' In: Nature Structural & Molecular Biology 19, S. 84-89, Dezember 11, 2012</ref>, has the binding element AAGNNG (most frequent sequence: AAGGAG) which can be found downstream of the GNGAY motif.
