Model confidence (pLDDT)

The mean pLDDT of this model is 93.3 (very high 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.

pLDDT band	Meaning	Share of residues
Above 90	Very high: backbone and side chains are usually accurate	90%
70 to 90	Confident: backbone generally right	10%
50 to 70	Low: treat with caution	0%
Below 50	Very low: often disordered regions	0%

What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

This protein binds the 5S rRNA. It is required for the late stages of subunit assembly, and is essential for 5S rRNA assembly onto the ribosome

Subunit structure

Part of the 50S ribosomal subunit (PubMed:10094780, PubMed:12809609, PubMed:16272117, PubMed:24844575, PubMed:25310980, PubMed:27906160, PubMed:27906161, PubMed:27934701, PubMed:3298242, PubMed:340263). Contacts the 5S rRNA (PubMed:3298242)
