STRC pLDDT Profile and Cut Point Analysis

Source Data

CIF file: ~/DeepResearch/strc/af3-results/job-b-full-strc-homodimer/fold_full_strc_homodimer_model_2.cif Chain A, 1775 residues. Per-residue pLDDT extracted from B-factor column.

Region Averages

RegionResiduesAvg pLDDTClassification
N-terminal1-11440.9Very low confidence (disordered)
Middle115-61550.2Low confidence (mostly disordered)
Transition zone616-69960.2Medium confidence (partially ordered)
Shorter mini-STRC700-177571.2Confident (well-structured)
C-term only1075-177573.0Confident

The Disorder Dip at Residues 685-694

Critical finding that justifies the 700 cut point:

ResiduepLDDTNote
68539.2Entering dip
68835.1Deep disorder
69131.2Minimum (lowest in transition zone)
69435.8Still low
70057.1Recovery point (our cut)
70673.2Confident folding begins
71478.0Fully structured

The dip at 685-694 is a natural domain boundary: disorder valley between the transition zone and the LRR domain. Cutting at 700 captures the exact recovery point where confidence returns.
