The mean pLDDT of this model is 93.4 (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 | 89% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 5% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 5% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 1% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
This protein may be involved in the oncogenic potential of this virus (associated with cancer of the uterine cervix)
Forms homodimers. Interacts with ubiquitin-protein ligase UBE3A/E6-AP and thus forms a complex with human TP53. Interacts with human NFX1 and MAGI3. Interacts with human IRF3; this interaction inhibits the establishment of antiviral state. Interacts with human TYK2; this interaction inhibits JAK-STAT activation by interferon alpha. Interacts with host DLG1; this interaction leads to the…
