What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Acts as a histone H2A/H2B chaperone in nucleosome assembly, playing a critical role for the correct expression of genes involved in root proliferation and patterning. Required with NRP2 for the maintenance of cell proliferation and differentiation in postembryonic root growth. Involved in both intramolecular and intermolecular somatic homologous recombination

Subunit structure

Can form homomeric and heteromeric protein complexes with NRP2. Binds histones H2A and H2B and associates with chromatin in vivo

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm, Nucleus
