PrDOS: prediction of disordered protein regions from amino acid sequence

Nucleic Acids Res. 2007 Jul;35(Web Server issue):W460-4. doi: 10.1093/nar/gkm363. Epub 2007 Jun 12.

Abstract

PrDOS is a server that predicts the disordered regions of a protein from its amino acid sequence (http://prdos.hgc.jp). The server accepts a single protein amino acid sequence, in either plain text or FASTA format. The prediction system is composed of two predictors: a predictor based on local amino acid sequence information and one based on template proteins. The server combines the results of the two predictors and returns a two-state prediction (order/disorder) and a disorder probability for each residue. The prediction results are sent by e-mail, and the server also provides a web-interface to check the results.
