Entropy-Weighted Collapse Likelihood
EWCL
Interpretable residue-level prediction of intrinsic disorder.
EWCL connects explicit sequence physicochemistry, AlphaFold confidence, and local structural geometry to produce inspectable residue-level disorder profiles.

Why disorder matters
Proteins do not always function through one stable structure.
Intrinsically disordered proteins and regions sample ensembles rather than settling into a single fold. Their sequence-encoded flexibility enables signaling, molecular recognition, regulation, and biomolecular condensation.

Ubiquitin is shown from the experimental PDB 1UBQ coordinates and colored with a 76-residue EWCL-Structure score vector. BRCA1 is a mixed-architecture protein—not a wholly disordered chain. Its canonical architecture map retains the structured RING and tandem BRCT domains while showing the experimentally characterized central disorder regions without implying a single validated conformation for the central IDR.
What EWCL measures
Sequence physics becomes residue-level evidence.
EWCL transforms explicit sequence-derived physicochemistry into a continuous prediction, then aligns that profile with AlphaFold confidence and local structural geometry. Every output remains connected to interpretable evidence.

Choose your analysis workflow
Four routes into the same residue-resolved EWCL framework.
01
SequenceIndividual sequence-only prediction
Submit a protein sequence or UniProt accession for an individual residue-level EWCL-Sequence prediction. No structure file is required.
02StructureIndividual structure-aware analysis
Analyze an individual protein using its sequence together with a compatible PDB or AlphaFold structure. This enables EWCL-Structure, pLDDT comparison, local geometry, and Confidence–Disorder Conflict analysis.
03BatchUp to 50 proteins per submission
Submit a multi-FASTA file containing up to 50 proteins. Batch processing returns residue-level predictions and downloadable result files for each sequence.
04APIDirect programmatic integration
Integrate EWCL into computational pipelines through direct API requests to the deployed prediction service.
01Explicit sequence features
Inspectable physicochemical descriptors across multiple residue windows.
02Residue-level prediction
A continuous disorder likelihood for every position in the sequence.
03Feature-family attribution
Model evidence organized by physical and compositional feature family.
04AlphaFold conflict analysis
Localizes agreement and confidence–disorder conflict regions.
Analysis preview
From score to evidence.
Inspect the continuous prediction against structural confidence, curated disorder, experimentally observed structure, and model-level feature evidence—without losing residue coordinates.
Preview data are loaded from the publication protein service. Evidence tracks use the corresponding accession’s DisProt, MobiDB, observed-structure, and AlphaFold records.
