Model confidence (pLDDT)

The mean pLDDT of this model is 58.5 (low overall). pLDDT is AlphaFold's per-residue confidence score from 0 to 100. In MolViewer, choose the B-factor color scheme to color the model by pLDDT, because AlphaFold stores it in the B-factor column.

What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Plays a role in the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Contributes with NCK1 and GRB2 in the recruitment and activation of WASL. May participate in regulating the subcellular localization of WASL, resulting in the disassembly of stress fibers in favor of filopodia formation. Plays a role in the formation of cell ruffles (By similarity). Plays an important role in the intracellular motility of vaccinia virus by functioning as an adapter for recruiting WASL to vaccinia virus

Subunit structure

Binds to WAS, profilin and actin. Binds to WASL (By similarity). Interacts with DBNL. Interacts with FNBP1L (via the SH3 domain) (PubMed:19798448)

Subcellular location

Cytoplasmic vesicle, Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, Cell projection, ruffle
