What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Scaffold protein that acts as a key protein-protein adapter in DNA replication and DNA repair. Composed of multiple BRCT domains, which specifically recognize and bind phosphorylated proteins, bringing proteins together into functional combinations (PubMed:14718568). Required for DNA replication initiation but not for the formation of pre-replicative complexes or the elongation stages (By similarity). Necessary for the loading of replication factors onto chromatin, including GMNC, CDC45, DNA polymerases and components of the GINS complex (By similarity). Plays a central role in DNA repair by bridging proteins and promoting recruitment of proteins to DNA damage sites (By similarity).…

Subunit structure

Interacts (via BRCT domains 1 and 2) with (phosphorylated) MDC1; promoting TOPBP1 recruitment to DNA damage sites during mitosis. Interacts (via BRCT domains 7 and 8) with (autophosphorylated) ATR; promoting activation of ATR. Interacts (via BRCT domains 7 and 8) with (phosphorylated) POLQ; specifically binds POLQ phosphorylated by PLK1, promoting POLQ recruitment to DNA damage sites. Interacts…
