New Paper, FAIDR method

A new paper on evolutionary signatures of intrinsically disordered regions and their application on identifying molecular features that are associated with biological function, is available now as preprint.

The paper proposed the method: FAIDR (for Feature Analysis of Intrinsically Disordered Regions). This website used this method on some of the IDRs that are at least annotated to one of the GO terms in our selected annotation dataset.

When searching for an IDR, part of the result using FAIDR can be seen on "ZFplot" tab of the search result.
