What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Transcription factor that plays an important role in the regulation of lymphocyte differentiation. Plays an essential role in regulation of B-cell differentiation, proliferation and maturation to an effector state. Involved in regulating BCL2 expression and controlling apoptosis in T-cells in an IL2-dependent manner

Subunit structure

Homodimer. Heterodimer with other IKAROS family members. Interacts with IKZF4 and IKZF5. Interacts with IKZF1. Interacts with HRAS. Interacts with FOXP3; this interaction may be required for silencing target genes and regulating the suppressive activity of FOXP3-positive regulatory T-cells (Treg). Interacts with BCL21L isoform Bcl-X(L); this interaction blocks the anti-apoptotic role of BCL21L.…
