abstract = {© The Author(s) 2024. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of Nucleic Acids Research.The MobiDB database (URL: https://mobidb.org/) aims to provide structural and functional information about intrinsic protein disorder, aggregating annotations from the literature, experimental data, and predictions for all known protein sequences. Here, we describe the improvements made to our resource to capture more information, simplify access to the aggregated data, and increase documentation of all MobiDB features. Compared to the previous release, all underlying pipeline modules were updated. The prediction module is ten times faster and can detect if a predicted disordered region is structurally extended or compact. The PDB component is now able to process large cryo-EM structures extending the number of processed entries. The entry page has been restyled to highlight functional aspects of disorder and all graphical modules have been completely reimplemented for better flexibility and faster rendering. The server has been improved to optimise bulk downloads. Annotation provenance has been standardised by adopting ECO terms. Finally, we propagated disorder function (IDPO and GO terms) from the DisProt database exploiting sequence similarity and protein embeddings. These improvements, along with the addition of comprehensive training material, offer a more intuitive interface and novel functional knowledge about intrinsic disorder.},

Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of Nucleic Acids Research.DisProt (URL: https://disprot.org) is the gold standard database for intrinsically disordered proteins and regions, providing valuable information about their functions. The latest version of DisProt brings significant advancements, including a broader representation of functions and an enhanced curation process. These improvements aim to increase both the quality of annotations and their coverage at the sequence level. Higher coverage has been achieved by adopting additional evidence codes. Quality of annotations has been improved by systematically applying Minimum Information About Disorder Experiments (MIADE) principles and reporting all the details of the experimental setup that could potentially influence the structural state of a protein. The DisProt database now includes new thematic datasets and has expanded the adoption of Gene Ontology terms, resulting in an extensive functional repertoire which is automatically propagated to UniProtKB. Finally, we show that DisProt’s curated annotations strongly correlate with disorder predictions inferred from AlphaFold2 pLDDT (predicted Local Distance Difference Test) confidence scores. This comparison highlights the utility of DisProt in explaining apparent uncertainty of certain well-defined predicted structures, which often correspond to folding-upon-binding fragments. Overall, DisProt serves as a comprehensive resource, combining experimental evidence of disorder information to enhance our understanding of intrinsically disordered proteins and their functional implications.},

Current Protocols published by Wiley Periodicals LLC.Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) make up around 30% of eukaryotic proteomes and play a crucial role in cellular processes and in pathological conditions such as neurodegenerative disorders and cancers. However, IDPs exhibit dynamic conformational ensembles and are often involved in the formation of biomolecular condensates. Understanding the function of IDPs is critical to research in many areas of science. MobiDB is a unique resource that serves as a comprehensive knowledgebase of IDPs and intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs), combining disorder annotations from experimental evidence and predictions for a broad range of protein sequences. Over the past decade, MobiDB has evolved with a focus on expanding annotation coverage, standardizing annotation provenance, and enhancing database accessibility. The latest MobiDB, version 6, released in July 2024, includes significant improvements, such as the integration of AlphaFoldDB predictions and a new homology transfer pipeline that has substantially increased the number of entries with high-quality annotations. The user interface has also been updated, highlighting annotation features, clarifying the entry page, and providing an immediate overview of disorder, binding, and disorder functions information in the protein sequence. This protocol guides the user through applications of the MobiDB, including disorder prediction, curated data analysis, and exploration of interaction data. This guide covers how to perform a search in MobiDB annotations using the web interface and the MobiDB REST API for programmatic access. The protocols use a step-by-step walkthrough using the human growth hormone receptor to demonstrate MobiDB's functions for visualization and interpretation of protein disorder data. © 2024 The Author(s).

Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of Nucleic Acids Research.The Protein Ensemble Database (PED) (URL: https://proteinensemble.org) is the primary resource for depositing structural ensembles of intrinsically disordered proteins. This updated version of PED reflects advancements in the field, denoting a continual expansion with a total of 461 entries and 538 ensembles, including those generated without explicit experimental data through novel machine learning (ML) techniques. With this significant increment in the number of ensembles, a few yet-unprecedented new entries entered the database, including those also determined or refined by electron paramagnetic resonance or circular dichroism data. In addition, PED was enriched with several new features, including a novel deposition service, improved user interface, new database cross-referencing options and integration with the 3D-Beacons network—all representing efforts to improve the FAIRness of the database. Foreseeably, PED will keep growing in size and expanding with new types of ensembles generated by accurate and fast ML-based generative models and coarse-grained simulations. Therefore, among future efforts, priority will be given to further develop the database to be compatible with ensembles modeled at a coarse-grained level.},

Published by Oxford University Press.The DisProt database is a resource containing manually curated data on experimentally validated intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) from the literature. Developed in 2005, its primary goal was to collect structural and functional information into proteins that lack a fixed three-dimensional structure.Today, DisProt has evolved into a major repository that not only collects experimental data but also contributes to our understanding of the IDPs/IDRs roles in various biological processes, such as autophagy or the life cycle mechanisms in viruses or their involvement in diseases (such as cancer and neurodevelopmental disorders). DisProt offers detailed information on the structural states of IDPs/IDRs, including state transitions, interactions and their functions, all provided as curated annotations. One of the central activities of DisProt is the meticulous curation of experimental data from the literature. For this reason, to ensure that every expert and volunteer curator possesses the requisite knowledge for data evaluation, collection and integration, training courses and curation materials are available. However, biocuration guidelines concur on the importance of developing robust guidelines that not only provide critical information about data consistency but also ensure data acquisition.This guideline aims to provide both biocurators and external users with best practices for manually curating IDPs and IDRs in DisProt. It describes every step of the literature curation process and provides use cases of IDP curation within DisProt.},

Since its first release 10 years ago, the MobiDB database has evolved in order to improve the quality and coverage of protein disorder annotations and its accessibility. MobiDB has now reached its maturity in terms of data standardization and visualization. Here, we present a new release which focuses on the optimization of user experience and database content. The major advances compared to the previous version are the integration of AlphaFoldDB predictions and the re-implementation of the homology transfer pipeline, which expands manually curated annotations by two orders of magnitude. Finally, the entry page has been restyled in order to provide an overview of the available annotations along with two separate views that highlight structural disorder evidence and functions associated with different binding modes.},

The KDM5C gene, located in the Xp22 chromosomal region, encodes the H3K4me3-me2 eraser involved in neuronal plasticity and dendritic growth. Here we report 30 individuals carrying 13 novel and one previously identified KDM5C variants. Our cohort includes the first reported case of somatic mosaicism in a male carrying a KDM5C nucleotide substitution, and a dual molecular finding in a female carrying a homozygous truncating FUCA1 alteration together with a de novo KDM5C variant. With the use of next generation sequencing strategies, we detected 1 frameshift, 1 stop codon, 2 splice-site and 10 missense variants, which pathogenic role was carefully investigated by a thorough bioinformatic analysis. The pattern of X-chromosome inactivation was found to have an impact on KDM5C phenotypic expression in females of our cohort. The affected individuals of our case series manifested a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by psychomotor delay, intellectual disability with speech disorders, and behavioral features with particular disturbed sleep pattern; other observed clinical manifestations were short stature, obesity and hypertrichosis. Collectively, these findings expand the current knowledge about the pathogenic mechanisms leading to dysfunction of this important chromatin remodeling gene and contribute to a refinement of the KDM5C phenotypic spectrum.},

Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of The Genetics Society of America.The Gene Ontology (GO) knowledgebase (http://geneontology.org) is a comprehensive resource concerning the functions of genes and gene products (proteins and noncoding RNAs). GO annotations cover genes from organisms across the tree of life as well as viruses, though most gene function knowledge currently derives from experiments carried out in a relatively small number of model organisms. Here, we provide an updated overview of the GO knowledgebase, as well as the efforts of the broad, international consortium of scientists that develops, maintains, and updates the GO knowledgebase. The GO knowledgebase consists of three components: (1) the GO - a computational knowledge structure describing the functional characteristics of genes; (2) GO annotations - evidence-supported statements asserting that a specific gene product has a particular functional characteristic; and (3) GO Causal Activity Models (GO-CAMs) - mechanistic models of molecular "pathways"(GO biological processes) created by linking multiple GO annotations using defined relations. Each of these components is continually expanded, revised, and updated in response to newly published discoveries and receives extensive QA checks, reviews, and user feedback. For each of these components, we provide a description of the current contents, recent developments to keep the knowledgebase up to date with new discoveries, and guidance on how users can best make use of the data that we provide. We conclude with future directions for the project.},

abstract = {© 2022 The Author(s). Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of Nucleic Acids Research.The Database of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (DisProt, URL: https://disprot.org) is the major repository of manually curated annotations of intrinsically disordered proteins and regions from the literature. We report here recent updates of DisProt version 9, including a restyled web interface, refactored Intrinsically Disordered Proteins Ontology (IDPO), improvements in the curation process and significant content growth of around 30%. Higher quality and consistency of annotations is provided by a newly implemented reviewing process and training of curators. The increased curation capacity is fostered by the integration of DisProt with APICURON, a dedicated resource for the proper attribution and recognition of biocuration efforts. Better interoperability is provided through the adoption of the Minimum Information About Disorder (MIADE) standard, an active collaboration with the Gene Ontology (GO) and Evidence and Conclusion Ontology (ECO) consortia and the support of the ELIXIR infrastructure.},

abstract = {© 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.WAC (WW Domain Containing Adaptor With Coiled-Coil) mutations have been reported in only 20 individuals presenting a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by intellectual disability, neonatal hypotonia, behavioral problems, and mildly dysmorphic features. Using targeted deep sequencing, we screened a cohort of 630 individuals with variable degrees of intellectual disability and identified five WAC rare variants: two variants were inherited from healthy parents; two previously reported de novo mutations, c.1661_1664del (p.Ser554*) and c.374C>A (p.Ser125*); and a novel c.381+2T>C variant causing the skipping of exon 4 of the gene, inherited from a reportedly asymptomatic father with somatic mosaicism. A phenotypic evaluation of this individual evidenced areas of cognitive and behavioral deficits. The patient carrying the novel splicing mutation had a clinical history of encephalopathy related to status epilepticus during slow sleep (ESES), recently reported in another WAC individual. This first report of a WAC somatic mosaic remarks the contribution of mosaicism in the etiology of neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders. We summarized the clinical data of reported individuals with WAC pathogenic mutations, which together with our findings, allowed for the expansion of the phenotypic spectrum of WAC-related disorders.},
