The mean pLDDT of this model is 43.1 (very 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 | 9% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 5% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 3% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 83% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
Transcription factor (PubMed:29967452). Acts as a transcriptional activator by binding to promoter regions of target genes, such as PDCD4, PIK3IP1, MXD4, PNRC1, and RFX5 (PubMed:29967452, PubMed:34197623). Plays a role in natural killer (NK) cell maintenance and immunity (PubMed:29967452). May play a role in the process of ciliogenesis in the neural tube and neural tube closure (By similarity)
Interacts (via PxLPxI/L motif) with RFXANK (via ankyrin repeats) (PubMed:25752541). Interacts (via PxLPxI/L motif) with ANKRA2 (via ankyrin repeats) (PubMed:25752541)
