The mean pLDDT of this model is 90.2 (very high 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 | 85% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 3% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 2% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 9% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
Component of the THO subcomplex of the TREX complex which is thought to couple mRNA transcription, processing and nuclear export, and which specifically associates with spliced mRNA and not with unspliced pre-mRNA (PubMed:15833825, PubMed:15998806, PubMed:17190602). Required for efficient export of polyadenylated RNA and spliced mRNA (PubMed:23222130). The THOC1-THOC2-THOC3 core complex alone is sufficient to bind export factor NXF1-NXT1 and promote ATPase activity of DDX39B (PubMed:33191911). TREX is recruited to spliced mRNAs by a transcription-independent mechanism, binds to mRNA upstream of the exon-junction complex (EJC) and is recruited in a splicing- and cap-dependent manner to a…
Component of the THO subcomplex, which is composed of THOC1, THOC2, THOC3, THOC5, THOC6 and THOC7 (PubMed:15833825, PubMed:15998806, PubMed:33191911, PubMed:37020021). The THO subcomplex interacts with DDX39B to form the THO-DDX39B complex which multimerizes into a 28-subunit tetrameric assembly (PubMed:33191911, PubMed:37020021). Component of the transcription/export (TREX) complex at least…
