Protein Properties

The protein sequences show substantial variation, ranging from 13 to 7,096 aa, with an average length of 588 ± 846 aa. Similarly, molecular weights range from 1,398 Da to 794,058 Da, with a mean molecular weight of 65,372 ± 93,818 Da.

3

Intrinsically Disordered Regions

ProDI-DB contains 4,647 non-redundant IDRs, with 1 to 19 IDRs per protein. While 2254 of proteins contain a single IDR, 940 possess multiple IDRs (with a maximum of 19 IDRs per protein). The length of IDRs ranges from 5 to 2,726 aa (average 71 aa) and contributes on average 68.73% of the total disorder content.

4

Amino Acid Composition of IDRs

IDRs are more enriched in charged and polar residues, and depleted in aromatic content as compared to the hydrophobic residues- a major characteristic of intrinsically disordered regions.

5

Structural Representation of IDPs in ProDI-DB

A total of 2,767 proteins (86.63%) is represented by either one or more experimentally resolved structures, while 427 proteins (13.37%) currently lack any three-dimensional structures reported in PDB. Collectively, these proteins are associated with 39,736 PDB entries.

6

Experimental Methods of Structural Determination

The experimentally determined structures associated with proteins in ProDI-DB are categorised into three major experimental techniques: X-ray diffraction, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and electron microscopy (EM). X-ray diffraction accounts for the largest proportion of available structures, followed by EM and NMR.
