What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Ena/VASP proteins are actin-associated proteins involved in a range of processes dependent on cytoskeleton remodeling and cell polarity such as axon guidance and lamellipodial and filopodial dynamics in migrating cells. ENAH induces the formation of F-actin rich outgrowths in fibroblasts. Acts synergistically with BAIAP2-alpha and downstream of NTN1 to promote filipodia formation (By similarity)

Subunit structure

Homotetramer (By similarity). Interacts with APBB1IP, APBB1, PFN1 and ROBO4 (PubMed:12941633, PubMed:15469846, PubMed:17686488). Isoforms, containing the polyproline-rich regions with PPLP motifs, bind the WW domain of APBB1IP (PubMed:15469846). Isoforms, containing the PPSY motif, bind, in vitro, to the WW2 and WW3 domains of NEDD4 and to the WW1 domain of YAP1 (By similarity). Binds the SH3…
