Exploiting heterogeneous sequence properties improves prediction of protein disorder
Abstract
During the past few years we have investigated methods to improve predictors of intrinsically disordered regions longer than 30 consecutive residues. Experimental evidence, however, showed that these predictors were less successful on short disordered regions, as observed two years ago during the fifth Critical Assessment of Techniques for Protein Structure Prediction (CASP5). To address this shortcoming, we developed a two-level model called VSL1 (CASP6 id: 193-1). At the first level, VSL1 consists of two specialized predictors, one of which was optimized for long disordered regions (>30 residues) and the other for short disordered regions (< or =30 residues). At the second level, a meta-predictor was built to assign weights for combining the two first-level predictors. As the results of the CASP6 experiment showed, this new predictor has achieved the highest accuracy yet and significantly improved performance on short disordered regions, while maintaining high performance on long disordered regions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
