Discovering MoRFs by trisecting intrinsically disordered protein sequence into terminals and middle regions

Abstract Background Molecular Recognition Features (MoRFs) are short protein regions present in intrinsically disordered protein (IDPs) sequences. MoRFs interact with structured partner protein and upon interaction, they undergo a disorder-to-order transition to perform various biological functions....
