Dynamically disordered regions appear to be relatively abundant in eukaryotic proteomes and the DISOPRED server allows users to submit a protein sequence, and returns a probability estimate of each residue in the sequence being disordered.
Abstract
Summary: Dynamically disordered regions appear to be relatively abundant in eukaryotic proteomes. The DISOPRED server allows users to submit a protein sequence, and returns a probability estimate of each residue in the sequence being disordered. The results are sent in both plain text and graphical formats, and the server can also supply predictions of secondary structure to provide further structural information. Availability: The server can be accessed by non-commercial users at http://bioinf.cs.ucl.ac.uk/disopred/

Protein structure prediction on the Web: a case study using the Phyre server.

TL;DR: This protocol provides a guide to interpreting the output of structure prediction servers in general and one such tool in particular, the protein homology/analogy recognition engine (Phyre), which can reliably detect up to twice as many remote homologies as standard sequence-profile searching.

IUPred: web server for the prediction of intrinsically unstructured regions of proteins based on estimated energy content

TL;DR: The IUPred server presents a novel algorithm for predicting such regions from amino acid sequences by estimating their total pairwise interresidue interaction energy, based on the assumption that IUP sequences do not fold due to their inability to form sufficient stabilizing inter Residue interactions.

Template-based protein structure modeling using the RaptorX web server

TL;DR: This protocol presents a community-wide web-based method using RaptorX (http://raptorx.uchicago.edu/) for protein secondary structure prediction, template-based tertiary structure modeling, alignment quality assessment and sophisticated probabilistic alignment sampling.

A global genetic interaction network maps a wiring diagram of cellular function

TL;DR: A global genetic interaction network highlights the functional organization of a cell and provides a resource for predicting gene and pathway function and how coherent sets of negative or positive genetic interactions connect protein complex and pathways to map a functional wiring diagram of the cell.

Gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST: a new generation of protein database search programs.

TL;DR: A new criterion for triggering the extension of word hits, combined with a new heuristic for generating gapped alignments, yields a gapped BLAST program that runs at approximately three times the speed of the original.

Protein secondary structure prediction based on position-specific scoring matrices

TL;DR: A two-stage neural network has been used to predict protein secondary structure based on the position specific scoring matrices generated by PSI-BLAST and achieved an average Q3 score of between 76.5% to 78.3% depending on the precise definition of observed secondary structure used, which is the highest published score for any method to date.

Prediction and functional analysis of native disorder in proteins from the three kingdoms of life.

TL;DR: An automatic method for recognizing natively disordered regions from amino acid sequence is described and benchmarked against predictors that were assessed at the latest critical assessment of techniques for protein structure prediction (CASP) experiment and represents a statistically significant improvement on the methods evaluated on the same targets at CASP.

Intrinsic disorder in cell-signaling and cancer-associated proteins.

TL;DR: The data suggest that intrinsically unstructured proteins play key roles in cell-signaling, regulation and cancer, where coupled folding and binding is a common mechanism.
