Gene Group (FlyBase)
ADP-RIBOSYLATION FACTOR GTPASE ACTIVATING PROTEINS -
ArfGAPs are GTPase activating proteins for ARF family GTPases. ARFGAPs contain a characteristic 130 amino acid module, the ArfGAP domain, originally defined as the minimal fragment possessing ArfGAP activity. (Adapted from FBrf0158741, PMID:15731001 and PMID:18809720).
UNCLASSIFIED GTPASES -
This group comprises GTPases that do not classify under other groups in FlyBase.
Protein Function (UniProtKB)
GTPase-activating protein for the ADP ribosylation factor family.

Model Confidence:
  • Very high (pLDDT > 90)
  • Confident (90 > pLDDT > 70)
  • Low (70 > pLDDT > 50)
  • Very low (pLDDT < 50)

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.
