The CS and CHORD (Pfam:PF04968) are fused into a single polypeptide chain in metazoans but are found in separate proteins in plants; this is thought to be indicative of an interaction between CS and CHORD [1]. It has been suggested that the CS domain is a binding module for HSP90, implying that CS domain-containing proteins are involved in recruiting heat shock proteins to multiprotein assemblies [2]. Two CS domains are found at the N-terminus of Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 19 (USP19) (Swiss:O94966), these domains may play a role in the interaction of USP19 with cellular inhibitor of apoptosis 2 [3].

The N terminal domain of Siah interacting protein (SIP) adopts a helical hairpin structure with a hydrophobic core stabilised by a classic knobs-and-holes arrangement of side chains contributed by the two amphipathic helices. Little is known about this domain's function, except that it is crucial for interactions with Siah. It has also been hypothesised that SIP can dimerise through this N terminal domain [1].
