The mean pLDDT of this model is 79.3 (confident 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 | 36% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 31% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 31% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 2% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
Component of the mitochondrial large ribosomal subunit (mt-LSU) (PubMed:25838379, PubMed:28892042). Mature mammalian 55S mitochondrial ribosomes consist of a small (28S) and a large (39S) subunit. The 28S small subunit contains a 12S ribosomal RNA (12S mt-rRNA) and 30 different proteins. The 39S large subunit contains a 16S rRNA (16S mt-rRNA), a copy of mitochondrial valine transfer RNA…
