What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Component of the Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein BCOR complex, a complex required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of some genes, such as BCL6 and the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, CDKN1A. Transcriptional repressor that may be targeted to the DNA by BCL6; this transcription repressor activity may be related to PKC signaling pathway. Represses CDKN1A expression by binding to its promoter, and this repression is dependent on the retinoic acid response element (RARE element). Promotes cell cycle progression and enhances cell proliferation as well. May have a positive role in tumor cell growth by down-regulating CDKN1A. Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein…

Subunit structure

Interacts with BCORL1, forming heterodimers (PubMed:23523425, PubMed:27568929). The PCGF1-BCORL1 heterodimeric complex interacts with the KDM2B-SKP1 heterodimeric complex to form a homotetrameric polycomb repression complex 1 (PRC1.1) (PubMed:27568929). Component of the repressive BCOR complex containing a Polycomb group subcomplex at least composed of RYBP, RING1 and RNF2/RING2…
