The mean pLDDT of this model is 54.4 (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 | 19% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 6% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 9% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 66% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
RNA binding protein that binds to the poly-A tract of mRNA molecules (PubMed:21098120). Associates with the 40S ribosomal subunit and with polysomes (PubMed:21098120). Plays a role in the regulation of mRNA translation (PubMed:21098120). Essential for proper regulation of cell morphology and cytoskeletal organization (PubMed:21834987, PubMed:27615744)
Interacts (via N-terminal region) with PABPC1 (PubMed:21098120, PubMed:27615744). Interacts with RACK1 (PubMed:21098120)
