The mean pLDDT of this model is 81.5 (confident 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 | 54% |
| 70 to 90 | Confident: backbone generally right | 28% |
| 50 to 70 | Low: treat with caution | 5% |
| Below 50 | Very low: often disordered regions | 13% |
What pLDDT means and how to read it
Involved in neural development, regulating the establishment of proper connectivity within the nervous system (PubMed:21724987). Acts as a ligand of the ADGRL1 and ADGRL3 receptors that are expressed at the surface of adjacent cells (PubMed:21724987). Promotes the formation of filopodia and enlarged growth cone in neuronal cells (PubMed:21724987). Mediates axon guidance and homophilic and heterophilic cell-cell adhesion (PubMed:21724987). May function as a cellular signal transducer (PubMed:21724987)
Homodimer; disulfide-linked (Probable). Heterodimer with either TENM1 or TENM3. May also form heterodimer with TENM4 (By similarity). Isoform 2 (C-terminal globular domain) interacts with ADGRL1 isoform 2
