Resources

  • Flipper (D1.5) [private]: Fast Linear Interacting Peptides PrEdictoR A sequence based predictor of LIPS, i.e. regions or residues that interact with other proteins or DNA/RNA preserving a linear (disordered) structure. Flipper is a neural network trained on latest DisProt data that identifies LIPS from sequence.
  • DisProt homology transfer (D1.4) [private]: An algorithm to extend DisProt annotation to homologous genes. DisProt contains high quality annotations of protein intrinsic disorder obtained through manual curation. Evidence of disorder is often found for some organisms (usually model organisms), but missing for others. While it could be tempting to extend annotation by simple sequence similarity, it has been shown that even one single residue can cause a protein to completely fold or unfold. This algorythm is specifically designed to assess the transferability of disorder annotation to homologous proteins.
  • PED automatic extraction (D1.1) [private]: The goal of PED is to serve as an openly accessible database for the deposition of structural ensembles of IDPs and of denatured proteins based on nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering and other data measured in solution. This software automatically generates PED entries from ensemble data
  • IDPOntology (D2.1) [private]: Ontology of intrinsically disordered proteins in OWL and OBO formats. Currently at its 0.1.0 version. Used in DisProt 8.0+
  • Pubmederman (D1.3) [private]: software to search PPI interactions from annotations in scientific publications in order to be presented to database curators like DisProt. Pubmederman uses information from Uniprot, Pfam, Scilite, Hippie and PDB.
