Genome-Wide Characterization of Wholly Disordered Proteins in <i>Arabidopsis</i>.

ABSTRACT: Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) include two types of proteins: partial disordered regions (IDRs) and wholly disordered proteins (WDPs). Extensive studies focused on the proteins with IDRs, but less is known about WDPs because of their difficult-to-form folded tertiary structure. In this study, we developed a bioinformatics method for screening more than 50 amino acids in the genome level and found a total of 27 categories, including 56 WDPs, in Arabidopsis. After comparing with 56 randomly selected structural proteins, we found that WDPs possessed a more wide range of theoretical isoelectric point (PI), a more negative of Grand Average of Hydropathicity (GRAVY), a higher value of Instability Index (II), and lower values of Aliphatic Index (AI). In addition, by calculating t
