The mean pLDDT of this model is 64.2 (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.
| pLDDT band | Meaning | Share of residues |
|---|---|---|
| Above 90 | Very high: backbone and side chains are usually accurate | 22% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 8% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 38% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 33% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
Sequence-specific transcription factor which is part of a developmental regulatory system that provides cells with specific positional identities on the anterior-posterior axis
Interacts with Geminin/GMNN, which inhibits transcriptional activity
