What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Lysosomal membrane glycoprotein which plays an important role in lysosome biogenesis, lysosomal pH regulation, autophagy and cholesterol homeostasis (PubMed:37390818). Acts as an important regulator of lysosomal lumen pH regulation by acting as a direct inhibitor of the proton channel TMEM175, facilitating lysosomal acidification for optimal hydrolase activity (PubMed:37390818). Also plays an important role in NK-cells cytotoxicity (PubMed:2022921, PubMed:23632890). Mechanistically, participates in cytotoxic granule movement to the cell surface and perforin trafficking to the lytic granule (PubMed:23632890). In addition, protects NK-cells from degranulation-associated damage induced by…

Subunit structure

Interacts with ABCB9; this interaction strongly stabilizes ABCB9 and protects ABCB9 against lysosomal degradation (PubMed:22641697). Interacts with FURIN (PubMed:32295904). Interacts with TMEM175; inhibiting the proton channel activity of TMEM175 (PubMed:37390818). Interacts with UBAC2; interaction increases upon the activation of starvation-induced autophagy (PubMed:39284914)
