Model confidence (pLDDT)

The mean pLDDT of this model is 85.5 (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.

What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Can promote mitochondrial permeability transition and facilitate necrotic cell death under different types of stress conditions

Subunit structure

Monomer. Interacts with LRPPRC (PubMed:11827465). May interact with BCL2L1; an interaction with BCL2L1 was observed using a peptide, but not with the full-length protein (PubMed:21639858). The full-length protein would have to undergo a major conformation change for the interaction to occur (PubMed:21639858). Interacts with PDCD6 (PubMed:27784779)

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm, Mitochondrion
