[Annotation] interpro scan question

I've got two protein sequences (found below) which are 99% identical.
Both belong to zebrafish synaptosomal protein snap25a, but one of them
is a fragment. The fragment turns up positive for the interpro domain
IPR002197 (helix-turn-helix, Fis-type), while the full length protein
does not. The fragment is the only protein on the gene that is positive
for this interpro domain. It turns out that IPR002197 maps through
interpro2go to 'transcription factor activity' and 'regulation of
transcription'. Is it possible that the protein fragment is getting a
false positive hit for the domain IPR002197? If so, why doesn't it also
make a false positive hit on the full length proteins?
Any help welcomed...
