What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Component of the 17S U2 SnRNP complex of the spliceosome, a large ribonucleoprotein complex that removes introns from transcribed pre-mRNAs (PubMed:10882114, PubMed:12234937, PubMed:27720643, PubMed:32494006). The 17S U2 SnRNP complex (1) directly participates in early spliceosome assembly and (2) mediates recognition of the intron branch site during pre-mRNA splicing by promoting the selection of the pre-mRNA branch-site adenosine, the nucleophile for the first step of splicing (PubMed:12234937, PubMed:32494006). Within the 17S U2 SnRNP complex, SF3B4 is part of the SF3B subcomplex, which is required for 'A' complex assembly formed by the stable binding of U2 snRNP to the branchpoint…

Subunit structure

Component of the 17S U2 SnRNP complex, a ribonucleoprotein complex that contains small nuclear RNA (snRNA) U2 and a number of specific proteins (PubMed:12234937, PubMed:15146077, PubMed:32494006, PubMed:36797247). Part of the SF3B subcomplex of the 17S U2 SnRNP complex (PubMed:12234937, PubMed:12738865, PubMed:27720643, PubMed:28541300). SF3B associates with the splicing subcomplex SF3A and a…
