PDB-DO: Database of Disorder

Disorder in protein structure and function have received very little attention even though the significance of these disordered regions from the functional aspects cannot be denied [2, 3, 5]. Protein Data Bank (PDB) which contains the largest collection of structural information of proteins is also the main source of disordered proteins. However, due to the lack of organised annotation and collective data on disordered regions from this database, the biological community at large is unaware of the importance of disorder. Hence, we propose here a database that will provide more accessibility to a systematic collection of disorder proteins from PDB.
