What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Required to control the activity of various transcription factors through their sequestration in the cytoplasm. Retains nuclear Zic proteins ZIC1, ZIC2 and ZIC3 in the cytoplasm and inhibits their transcriptional activation (PubMed:15207726, PubMed:15465018). Modulates the expression from cellular promoters. Binds to the axin complex, resulting in an increase in the level of free beta-catenin (By similarity). Affects axin-regulation of the WNT and JNK signaling pathways (By similarity). Involved in the development of lymphatic vessel valves (PubMed:35235341). Required to promote lymphatic endothelial cell migration, in a process that involves down-regulation of integrin beta 1 activation…

Subunit structure

Interacts with HAND1; the interaction sequesters Hand1 into the nucleolus and inhibits its activity (PubMed:17891141). Interacts (via C-terminus) with ZIC2 (PubMed:15207726, PubMed:15465018). Interacts (via C-terminus) with AXIN1, the histidine-rich region of CCNT1/cyclin-T and weakly with LEF1 (By similarity). Interacts with CCNT2 (By similarity). Interacts with GATA2 (PubMed:35235341).…
