What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Adapter protein that is required for correct postsynapse architecture and regulates postsynaptic plasticity through interactions with different partners (PubMed:11729199, PubMed:39256359). Through its interaction with CACNA1C, it enhances trafficking of voltage-dependent L-type calcium channels to the dendritic cell membrane and increases channel postsynaptic clustering, thereby facilitating excitatory calcium signaling (By similarity). It also serves as a scaffold that brings CAMK2A and PPP1CA into close proximity, probably facilitating rapid dephosphorylation of CAMK2A by PPP1CA and influencing CAMK2A-mediated regulation of postsynaptic plasticity (PubMed:39256359). Necessary for DISC1…

Subunit structure

Interacts with CNKSR2 and DLG4 (By similarity). Interacts with CTNND2/Catenin delta-2 (PubMed:11729199, PubMed:39256359). Forms a complex with N-cadherin through CTNND2 (PubMed:11729199). Interacts with CAMK2A and PPP1CA (PubMed:28130356, PubMed:39256359); the interaction may facilitate rapid CAMK2A dephosphorylation by PPP1CA by bringing CAMK2A and PPP1CA into close proximity (PubMed:39256359).…
