What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Component of the gamma-tubulin ring complex (gTuRC) which mediates microtubule nucleation. The gTuRC regulates the minus-end nucleation of alpha-beta tubulin heterodimers that grow into microtubule protafilaments, a critical step in centrosome duplication and spindle formation. Plays a role in neuronal migration

Subunit structure

Component of the gamma-tubulin ring complex (gTuRC) consisting of TUBGCP2, TUBGCP3, TUBGCP4, TUBGCP5 and TUBGCP6 and gamma-tubulin TUBG1 or TUBG2. TUBGCP2, TUBGCP3, TUBGCP4, TUBGCP5 and TUBGCP6 assemble in a 5:5:2:1:1 stoichiometry; each is associated with a gamma-tubulin, thereby arranging 14 gamma-tubulins in a helical manner. Gamma-tubulin at the first position is blocked by TUBGCP3 at the…
