Model confidence (pLDDT)

The mean pLDDT of this model is 93.2 (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	82%
70 to 90	Confident: backbone generally right	16%
50 to 70	Low: treat with caution	2%
Below 50	Very low: often disordered regions	0%

What pLDDT means and how to read it

Subunit structure

Component of the mitochondrial large ribosomal subunit (mt-LSU) (PubMed:25278503, PubMed:25838379, PubMed:28892042, PubMed:35177605). Mature mammalian 55S mitochondrial ribosomes consist of a small (28S) and a large (39S) subunit. The 28S small subunit contains a 12S ribosomal RNA (12S mt-rRNA) and 30 different proteins. The 39S large subunit contains a 16S rRNA (16S mt-rRNA), a copy of…
