Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Recent studies suggest that many proteins or regions of proteins lack 3D structure. Defined as intrinsically disordered proteins, these proteins/peptides are functionally important. Recent advances in next generation sequencing technologies enable genome-wide identification of novel nucleotide variations in a specific population or cohort. RESULTS: Using the exonic single nucleotide variations (SNVs)...
