What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

3'-5' DNA helicase and substrate-recognition component of the SCF(FBH1) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that plays a key role in response to stalled/damaged replication forks (PubMed:11956208, PubMed:23393192). Involved in genome maintenance by acting as an anti-recombinogenic helicase and preventing extensive strand exchange during homologous recombination: promotes RAD51 filament dissolution from stalled forks, thereby inhibiting homologous recombination and preventing excessive recombination (PubMed:17724085, PubMed:19736316). Also promotes cell death and DNA double-strand breakage in response to replication stress: together with MUS81, promotes the endonucleolytic DNA cleavage following…

Subunit structure

Part of the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex SCF(FBH1) composed of CUL1, SKP1, RBX1 and FBH1 (PubMed:11956208, PubMed:19736316, PubMed:23319600). Interacts with RAD51 (PubMed:23393192). Interacts with RPA2 (PubMed:23319600). Interacts (via PIP-box and RanBP2-type zinc finger) with PCNA (PubMed:23677613)
