The mean pLDDT of this model is 88.9 (confident 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 | 77% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 11% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 5% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 6% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
The beta chain of TRAV38-2DV8*01J31*01C*01/TRBV25-1*01J2S3*01C2*01 alpha-beta T cell receptor (TR) clonotype that displays pan-cancer cell recognition via the invariant MR1 molecule. On CD8-positive T cell clone MC.7.G5, likely recognizes tumor-specific or -associated metabolite(s) essential for cancer cell survival, triggering killing of many cancer cell types including lung, melanoma, leukemia, colon, breast, prostate, bone and ovarian cancer cells. Mediates cancer cell cytotoxicity in an HLA-independent manner. Has no reactivity to healthy cells even stressed or infected by bacteria (PubMed:31959982). Antigen recognition initiates TR-CD3 clustering on the cell surface and intracellular…
Disulfide-linked heterodimer with TRAV38-2DV8*01J31*01C*01 alpha chain (PubMed:31959982). The alpha-beta TR associates with the transmembrane signaling CD3 coreceptor proteins to form the TR-CD3 (TCR). The assembly of alpha-beta TR heterodimers with CD3 occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum where a single alpha-beta TR heterodimer associates with one CD3D-CD3E heterodimer, one CD3G-CD3E…
