The mean pLDDT of this model is 55.8 (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 | 13% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 25% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 12% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 50% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
Plays a role in the cell cycle. Involved in cytokinesis. Component of the cell division ring. In the absence of profilin, caps the barbed end of actin filaments, thus preventing subunit addition and dissociation. In the presence of profilin, nucleates actin filaments that grow rapidly from their barbed ends
Interacts with profilin and actin at the FH1 and FH2 domains respectively
