What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Component of the commander complex that is essential for endosomal recycling of transmembrane cargos; the commander complex is composed of the CCC subcomplex and the retriever subcomplex (PubMed:37172566, PubMed:39587083, PubMed:38062209, PubMed:38459129). Component of the retriever complex, which is a heterotrimeric complex related to retromer cargo-selective complex (CSC) and essential for retromer-independent retrieval and recycling of numerous cargos such as integrin alpha-5/beta-1 (ITGA5:ITGB1) (PubMed:28892079, PubMed:37172566, PubMed:39587083, PubMed:38062209, PubMed:38459129). Component of the retromer cargo-selective complex (CSC). The CSC is believed to be the core functional…

Subunit structure

Component of the commander complex consisting of the CCC subcomplex and the retriever subcomplex (PubMed:37172566, PubMed:28892079, PubMed:39587083, PubMed:38062209, PubMed:38459129). Component of the heterotrimeric retriever complex formed by VPS26C, VPS29 and VPS35L; within the complex interacts with VPS35L (PubMed:37172566, PubMed:28892079, PubMed:31712251, PubMed:39587083, PubMed:38062209,…
