The mean pLDDT of this model is 75.9 (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 | 25% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 47% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 13% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 15% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
Regulates mitochondrial small subunit maturation by controlling 15S rRNA 5'-end processing (PubMed:22861139, PubMed:32152734, PubMed:36482135). Localizes to the 5' precursor of the 15S rRNA in a position that is subsequently occupied by mS47 in the mature yeast mtSSU. Uses structure and sequence-specific RNA recognition, binding to a single-stranded region of the precursor and specifically recognizing bases -6 to -1. The exchange of Ccm1 for mS47 is coupled to the irreversible removal of precursor rRNA that is accompanied by conformational changes of the mitoribosomal proteins uS5m and mS26. These conformational changes signal completion of 5'-end rRNA processing through protection of the…
