[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#680367: ITP: norsp -- predictor of non-regular secondary structure

[Andreas Tille]

Hi,

thanks for the ITP in the Rostlab-packaging effort.

I have a slight remark:  The short description sounds quite generic and
it is not easy to guess from this that it is targeting at biologists.  It
possibly could enhanced somehow like this

  Description     : predictor of non-regular secondary structure of proteins

or something similar.

Kind regards

      Andreas.

It has been shown that extended loopy regions are very abundant in the protein universe and that they have been conserved through evolution. Here, we present NORSp, a publicly available predictor for disordered regions in protein. Specifically, NORSp predicts long regions with NO Regular Secondary structure. Upon user submission of a protein sequence, NORSp will analyse the protein for its secondary structure, presence of transmembrane helices and coiled-coil. It will then return email to the user about the presence and position of disordered regions.
