What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Microtubule (MT)-binding protein that plays a role in the formation and maintenance of the spindle poles and the alignement and the segregation of chromosomes during mitotic cell division (PubMed:17172455, PubMed:19255246, PubMed:24996901, PubMed:26195665, PubMed:27462074, PubMed:7769006). Functions to tether the minus ends of MTs at the spindle poles, which is critical for the establishment and maintenance of the spindle poles (PubMed:11956313, PubMed:12445386). Plays a role in the establishment of the mitotic spindle orientation during metaphase and elongation during anaphase in a dynein-dynactin-dependent manner (PubMed:23870127, PubMed:24109598, PubMed:24996901, PubMed:26765568). In…

Subunit structure

Homodimer (PubMed:10075938). Also forms multiarm oligomers by association of C-terminal tail domains, oligomers may further assemble to form a hexagonal nuclear lattice-like network (PubMed:10075938). Associates with the dynein-dynactin complex; this association promotes the transport and accumulation of NUMA1 at the mitotic spindle poles that is inhibited by the BRISC complex in a…
