Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a method for identifying functional site in disordered regions of proteins by using POODLE-S, POODLE-L, PSIPRED, ESPRESSO and Pfam database. POODLE-S and PODDLE-L are methods for predicting short and long disordered regions of proteins, respectively. PSIPRED is a method for predicting protein secondary structures developed by David Jones, et al. ESPRESSO is a system for estimating protein expression and solubility in protein expression systems. Pfam database, is available at EMBL-EBI site, is a large collection of protein families, each represented by multiple sequence alignments and identified their function sites. The prediction accuracy of this method is 78% that is better than desired value (70%), but the True Positive Rate (TPR) of this method is 43% that is less than TPR of other method (57%). The web system to implement the method has developed in our server. But the system is not available, since the prediction efficiency is not sufficient to use.
