The mean pLDDT of this model is 82.8 (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 | 30% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 58% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 11% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 1% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
Component of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport II (ESCRT-II), which is required for multivesicular body (MVB) formation and sorting of endosomal cargo proteins into MVBs. The MVB pathway mediates delivery of transmembrane proteins into the lumen of the lysosome for degradation. The ESCRT-II complex is probably involved in the recruitment of the ESCRT-III complex
Component of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport II (ESCRT-II), which consists of 2 copies of VPS25, 1 copy of SNF8, and 1 copy of VPS36. The ESCRT-II complex interacts directly with the VPS20 subunit of the ESCRT-III complex
