- <strong>JABAWS Protein Disorder Prediction Services</strong> <br />
- The <strong>Web Services→Disorder</strong> menu in the
- alignment window allows access to protein disorder prediction
- services provided by the configured <a
- href="http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/jabaws">JABAWS
- servers</a>. Each service operates on sequences in the alignment or
- currently selected region (<em>since Jalview 2.8.0b1</em>) to
- identify regions likely to be unstructured or flexible, or
- alternately, fold to form globular domains.
- </p>
- <p>
- Predictor results include both <a
- href="../features/seqfeatures.html">sequence features</a> and
- sequence associated <a href="../features/annotation.html">alignment
- annotation</a> rows. Features display is controlled from the <a
- href="../features/featuresettings.html">Feature Settings</a>
- dialog box. Clicking on the ID for a disorder prediction annotation
- row will highlight or select (if double clicked) the associated
- sequence for that row. You can also use the <em>Sequence
- Associated</em> option in the <a
- href="../colourSchemes/annotationColouring.html">Colour
- By Annotation</a> dialog box to colour sequences according to the
- results of predictors shown as annotation rows.
- </p>
- <p>JABAWS 2.2 provides four disorder predictors which are
- described below:</p>

- Regional Order Neural Network<br />This predictor employs an
- approach known as the 'bio-basis' method to predict regions of
- disorder in sequences based on their local similarity with a
- gold-standard set of disordered protein sequences. It yields a set
- of disorder prediction scores, which are shown as sequence
- annotation below the alignment.

- IUPred employs an empirical model to estimate likely regions of
- disorder. There are three different prediction types offered, each
- using different parameters optimized for slightly different
- applications. It provides raw scores based on two models for
- predicting regions of 'long disorder' and 'short disorder'. A third
- predictor identifies regions likely to form structured domains.

- <strong><a name="globplot"></a><a
- href="http://globplot.embl.de/">GLOBPLOT</a></strong><br /> Defines
- regions of globularity or natively unstructured regions based on a
- running sum of the propensity of residues to be structured or
- unstructured. The propensity is calculated based on the probability
- of each amino acid being observed within well defined regions of
- secondary structure or within regions of random coil. The initial
- signal is smoothed with a Savitzky-Golay filter, and its first order
- derivative computed. Residues for which the first order derivative
- is positive are designated as natively unstructured, whereas those
- with negative values are structured.<br />
