Model confidence (pLDDT)

The mean pLDDT of this model is 63.6 (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.

What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Microtubule inner protein (MIP) part of the dynein-decorated doublet microtubules (DMTs) in cilia axoneme, which is required for motile cilia beating (PubMed:37295417, PubMed:37865089, PubMed:37989994). Cytosolic sensor for calcium, modulates the interaction of STIM1 and ORAI1 upon store depletion and the activation of store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) and NFAT translocation from cytosol to nucleus (By similarity)

Subunit structure

Microtubule inner protein component of sperm flagellar doublet microtubules (PubMed:37295417, PubMed:37865089, PubMed:37989994). Interacts with STIM1 and ORAI1; the interactions take place upon Ca(2+)-store depletion and dissociate through a Ca(2+)-dependent mechanism. Interaction with STIM1 inhibits STIM1 interaction with SARAF (By similarity)
