What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Probable core polymerization component of the endosomal sorting required for transport (ESCRT) III complex involved in multiple cellular processes requiring the outward bending of membranes, including vesicle budding, membrane repair and cytokinesis (Probable). The ESCRT pathway involves 4 complexes (ESCRT-0, -I, -II and -III) that sequentially assemble on the cytoplasmic side of membranes and induce membrane remodeling, budding and scission. As part of the ESCRT-III complex, involved in the budding of intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) into endosomes to form multivesicular bodies (MVBs), which target their contents for degradation via the endolysosomal pathway (PubMed:16713958). Involved in…

Subunit structure

Homopolymer; forms elongated striated filaments of uniform ~10nm width (PubMed:27452459). Monomers interact in a staggered arrangement mediated by complementary charged electrostatic surfaces (PubMed:27452459). Interacts with l(2)gd1 (via DM14 domains 1 and 3); the interaction is direct and blocks access to the surface involved in homopolymerization (PubMed:22389409, PubMed:27452459,…
