Model confidence (pLDDT)

The mean pLDDT of this model is 63.9 (low 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.

What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

DNA-dependent ATPase and 5'-3' DNA helicase required for the maintenance of chromosomal stability (PubMed:11301010, PubMed:14983014, PubMed:16116421, PubMed:16153896, PubMed:17596542, PubMed:36608669). Acts late in the Fanconi anemia pathway, after FANCD2 ubiquitination (PubMed:14983014, PubMed:16153896). Involved in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination in a manner that depends on its association with BRCA1 (PubMed:14983014, PubMed:16153896). Involved in the repair of abasic sites at replication forks by promoting the degradation of DNA-protein cross-links: acts by catalyzing unfolding of HMCES DNA-protein cross-link via its helicase activity, exposing the…

Subunit structure

Interacts with the replication protein A complex (RPA) via the RPA1 subunit; following DNA damage they colocalize in foci in the nucleus (PubMed:17596542). Binds directly to the BRCT domains of BRCA1 (PubMed:15125843). Interacts with the CIA complex components CIAO1, CIAO2B and MMS19 (PubMed:23585563)
