The mean pLDDT of this model is 78.5 (confident 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.
| pLDDT band | Meaning | Share of residues |
|---|---|---|
| Above 90 | Very high: backbone and side chains are usually accurate | 24% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 57% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 8% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 11% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
Neural extracellular matrix (ECM) protein involved in interactions with different cells and matrix components. These interactions can influence cellular behavior by either evoking a stable adhesion and differentiation, or repulsion and inhibition of neurite growth. Binding to cell surface gangliosides inhibits RGD-dependent integrin-mediated cell adhesion and results in an inhibition of PTK2/FAK1 (FAK) phosphorylation and cell detachment. Binding to membrane surface sulfatides results in a oligodendrocyte adhesion and differentiation. Interaction with CNTN1 induces a repulsion of neurons and an inhibition of neurite outgrowth. Interacts with SCN2B may play a crucial role in clustering and…
Forms oligomers. Interacts with CNTN1, TNC, and FN1. Interacts with BCAN and ACAN in a calcium-dependent manner. Interacts with SCN2B, PTPRZ1, and CSPG3 (By similarity)
