Introduction\n\nIntrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) lack stable three-dimensional structure and play critical roles in signaling, regulation, and molecular recognition. It is well established that IDRs are enriched for disorder-promoting amino acids — particularly proline, glycine, serine, and glutamate — and depleted in order-promoting hydrophobic residues. However, most studies report enrichment as raw frequency ratios without controlling for the composition baseline problem: when the reference set includes the disordered residues themselves, the observed enrichment is systematically attenuated.\n\n**Methodological hook.** We introduce a composition-corrected enrichment framework that compares IDR amino acid frequencies exclusively against structured regions (helices and beta strands), using the hypergeometric distribution as the null model. This conditions on both the total count of each amino acid and the total number of disordered residues, providing an exact combinatorial null. We quantify the magnitude of the baseline contamination bias by comparing the naive (pooled) and corrected enrichment ratios for all 20 amino acids, showing that the naive approach understates proline enrichment by 2.39 ratio units.\n\n**Question.** How strong is amino acid enrichment in human protein disordered regions when composition baselines are properly controlled, and does the correction materially change the conclusions?\n\n## 2. Data\n\n**Source:** UniProt REST API v2, querying reviewed (Swiss-Prot) human proteins with annotated disordered regions.\n\n**Query:** `(reviewed:true) AND (organism_id:9606) AND (ft_region:disordered)`, paginated at 100 entries/page, 500 total entries downloaded.\n\n**Fields used:**\n- `primaryAccession`: protein identifier\n- `sequence.value`: full amino acid sequence\n- `features`: structural annotations including Region (with \"Disordered\" description), Helix, and Beta strand\n\n**Filtering:** Of 500 downloaded entries, 238 proteins had BOTH annotated disordered regions AND secondary structure (helix/strand) annotations, yielding 27,364 disordered residues and 41,494 structured residues for analysis.\n\n**Why this source is authoritative:** UniProt/Swiss-Prot entries are manually reviewed and curated by expert biocurators. Disorder annotations derive from experimental evidence and validated prediction tools. This is the gold standard for protein sequence annotation.\n\n**Integrity:** Data cached locally with SHA256 verification (hash: `3b7653879afaf67216cf836069f833f59f5ea789b7be3c7b9656f9d574a0155c`). Mismatch triggers automatic re-download.\n\n## 3. Methods\n\n### 3.1 Residue Classification\n\nEach residue position in a protein is classified as:\n- **Disordered:** within a \"Region\" feature whose description contains \"disordered\"\n- **Structured:** within a \"Helix\" or \"Beta strand\" feature (excluding positions already classified as disordered)\n- **Unclassified:** all other positions (excluded from analysis)\n\nOnly the 20 standard amino acids are counted. Proteins without residues in both categories are excluded.\n\n### 3.2 Hypergeometric Enrichment Test\n\nFor each amino acid *a*, we model the number of *a* residues in IDRs as a draw from a hypergeometric distribution:\n\n- **N** = total residues (disordered + structured) = 68,858\n- **K** = total count of amino acid *a* across both regions\n- **n** = total disordered residues = 27,364\n- **k** = observed count of *a* in disordered regions\n\nThe enrichment p-value is P(X ≥ k) and the depletion p-value is P(X ≤ k), computed exactly using log-space arithmetic (lgamma-based log-binomial coefficients with log-sum-exp aggregation).\n\n### 3.3 Bootstrap Confidence Intervals\n\nWe resample 238 proteins with replacement (2,000 resamples, seed = 42), recompute enrichment ratios for each amino acid in each resample, and report the 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles as 95% confidence intervals. Resampling at the protein level (not the residue level) preserves within-protein amino acid correlations.\n\n### 3.4 Permutation Test\n\nFor each of 1,000 permutations, we shuffle the disordered/structured labels **within each protein** (preserving per-protein composition exactly), then recompute enrichment ratios. The permutation p-value is (count of permutations at least as extreme + 1) / (1,001).\n\n### 3.5 Multiple Testing Correction\n\nBenjamini-Hochberg FDR correction is applied across all 20 amino acid tests with step-up monotonicity enforcement.\n\n### 3.6 Naive vs Corrected Comparison\n\nTo quantify the baseline contamination bias, we compute:\n- **Naive ratio:** freq(a in IDR) / freq(a in IDR + structured)\n- **Corrected ratio:** freq(a in IDR) / freq(a in structured only)\n- **Bias:** naive − corrected\n\n### 3.7 Sensitivity Analysis\n\nWe repeat the enrichment analysis on random subsets of 50, 100, and 200 proteins (seed = 42) to test whether findings are robust to sample size.\n\n## 4. Results\n\n### 4.1 Amino Acid Enrichment and Depletion\n\n**Finding 1:** All 20 amino acids show statistically significant enrichment or depletion in IDRs after Benjamini-Hochberg correction (FDR < 0.05), with 10 enriched and 10 depleted.\n\n| AA | Freq (IDR) | Freq (Str) | Ratio | log₂FC | 95% CI | BH p-value | Direction |\n|:--:|:----------:|:----------:|:-----:|:------:|:------:|:----------:|:---------:|\n| P | 0.0927 | 0.0218 | 4.247 | +2.087 | [3.787, 4.742] | < 10⁻³⁰⁰ | enriched |\n| S | 0.0995 | 0.0391 | 2.542 | +1.346 | [2.346, 2.747] | 2.9 × 10⁻³¹⁶ | enriched |\n| G | 0.0921 | 0.0451 | 2.044 | +1.031 | [1.755, 2.384] | 4.8 × 10⁻¹²³ | enriched |\n| D | 0.0584 | 0.0431 | 1.354 | +0.438 | [1.207, 1.522] | 5.1 × 10⁻¹⁸ | enriched |\n| Q | 0.0470 | 0.0366 | 1.284 | +0.360 | [1.084, 1.512] | 5.2 × 10⁻¹³ | enriched |\n| E | 0.0754 | 0.0589 | 1.280 | +0.357 | [1.110, 1.458] | 1.5 × 10⁻²⁰ | enriched |\n| K | 0.0657 | 0.0539 | 1.218 | +0.284 | [1.046, 1.401] | 1.3 × 10⁻¹¹ | enriched |\n| R | 0.0578 | 0.0489 | 1.182 | +0.241 | [1.042, 1.328] | 3.8 × 10⁻⁸ | enriched |\n| T | 0.0594 | 0.0507 | 1.171 | +0.227 | [1.066, 1.292] | 2.0 × 10⁻⁶ | enriched |\n| N | 0.0395 | 0.0363 | 1.088 | +0.121 | [0.953, 1.248] | 2.8 × 10⁻² | enriched |\n| A | 0.0591 | 0.0620 | 0.953 | −0.069 | [0.854, 1.054] | 4.5 × 10⁻² | depleted* |\n| H | 0.0238 | 0.0284 | 0.837 | −0.257 | [0.722, 0.951] | 3.3 × 10⁻⁴ | depleted |\n| M | 0.0157 | 0.0254 | 0.616 | −0.699 | [0.523, 0.718] | 2.1 × 10⁻¹⁹ | depleted |\n| L | 0.0434 | 0.1165 | 0.372 | −1.425 | [0.335, 0.411] | 3.6 × 10⁻²⁸² | depleted |\n| V | 0.0287 | 0.0816 | 0.352 | −1.504 | [0.318, 0.389] | 4.3 × 10⁻²⁰¹ | depleted |\n| Y | 0.0159 | 0.0467 | 0.341 | −1.553 | [0.247, 0.450] | 2.6 × 10⁻¹⁰¹ | depleted |\n| F | 0.0122 | 0.0514 | 0.237 | −2.075 | [0.203, 0.275] | 2.1 × 10⁻¹⁷⁴ | depleted |\n| W | 0.0038 | 0.0159 | 0.237 | −2.074 | [0.181, 0.306] | 4.7 × 10⁻⁶² | depleted |\n| I | 0.0180 | 0.0770 | 0.234 | −2.092 | [0.203, 0.268] | 3.1 × 10⁻²⁵² | depleted |\n| C | 0.0041 | 0.0177 | 0.230 | −2.120 | [0.182, 0.286] | 3.0 × 10⁻⁸⁷ | depleted |\n\n*Alanine is marked with an asterisk: while the hypergeometric test gives p = 0.045, the permutation test does not support this (p = 0.996), and the bootstrap CI spans 1.0 [0.854, 1.054]. We consider Ala's status unreliable.\n\n### 4.2 The Composition Baseline Bias\n\n**Finding 2:** The naive approach (comparing IDR frequencies to the pooled IDR + structured baseline) systematically attenuates enrichment for disorder-promoting amino acids and inflates ratios for depleted amino acids.\n\n| AA | Naive Ratio | Corrected Ratio | Bias |\n|:--:|:-----------:|:---------------:|:----:|\n| P | 1.854 | 4.247 | −2.393 |\n| S | 1.576 | 2.542 | −0.966 |\n| G | 1.445 | 2.044 | −0.599 |\n| I | 0.337 | 0.234 | +0.103 |\n| L | 0.496 | 0.372 | +0.124 |\n| V | 0.475 | 0.352 | +0.122 |\n\nThe naive approach reports proline enrichment as 1.85x; the corrected value is 4.25x — a 2.3-fold underestimate. For serine, the naive approach gives 1.58x vs the corrected 2.54x. This demonstrates that including IDR residues in the reference systematically contaminates the baseline, attenuating true enrichment and exaggerating depletion ratios toward 1.0.\n\n### 4.3 Permutation Validation\n\n**Finding 3:** All amino acids except Ala and Asn showed permutation p-values ≤ 0.004 (at the resolution of 1,000 permutations), confirming that the observed enrichment patterns cannot be explained by within-protein composition alone.\n\n### 4.4 Sensitivity Analysis\n\n**Finding 4:** Enrichment directions are stable across all subset sizes tested.\n\n| Subset | Pro | Gly | Ser | Glu | Trp | Cys | Ile | Leu |\n|--------|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|\n| n=50 | 3.87 | 1.83 | 2.53 | 1.19 | 0.19 | 0.21 | 0.24 | 0.34 |\n| n=100 | 4.42 | 2.14 | 2.41 | 1.40 | 0.16 | 0.23 | 0.22 | 0.39 |\n| n=200 | 4.13 | 2.07 | 2.61 | 1.21 | 0.24 | 0.24 | 0.24 | 0.37 |\n| n=238 | 4.25 | 2.04 | 2.54 | 1.28 | 0.24 | 0.23 | 0.23 | 0.37 |\n\nAll enrichment and depletion directions are consistent from n=50 to the full dataset. Effect sizes stabilize beyond n=100.\n\n## 5. Discussion\n\n### What This Is\n\nA quantitative, composition-controlled analysis of amino acid enrichment in intrinsically disordered regions of 238 human proteins, using an exact null model (hypergeometric distribution), protein-level bootstrap confidence intervals (2,000 resamples), within-protein permutation validation (1,000 permutations), and explicit quantification of how naive baselines attenuate enrichment estimates. Proline is 4.25x enriched (not the 1.85x a naive analysis would suggest); serine is 2.54x enriched (not 1.58x). Hydrophobic residues are depleted 3–4-fold.\n\n### What This Is Not\n\n1. **Not causal.** We observe association, not causation. Proline's enrichment in IDRs could reflect its structural role (disrupting helices), evolutionary tolerance in flexible regions, or both.\n2. **Not exhaustive.** We analyzed 238 of ~20,000 human proteins — those with both disorder and structure annotations in UniProt. The full proteome may show different effect sizes.\n3. **Not a predictor.** Amino acid composition alone cannot reliably predict disorder; sequence context, evolutionary conservation, and post-translational modifications all contribute.\n4. **Not novel in direction.** The qualitative finding (Pro/Gly/Ser enriched, hydrophobics depleted) is well established. Our contribution is quantitative: the composition-corrected effect sizes with proper confidence intervals and the explicit measurement of baseline contamination bias.\n\n### Practical Recommendations\n\n1. **Always use a composition-controlled baseline** when computing amino acid enrichment in protein subsets. Comparing to a pooled baseline that includes the region of interest underestimates enrichment by up to 2.4-fold.\n2. **Report enrichment ratios with confidence intervals**, not just p-values. The difference between 1.85x and 4.25x enrichment for proline is scientifically meaningful; a p-value alone cannot convey this.\n3. **Use orthogonal validation.** Our alanine case illustrates that hypergeometric significance (p = 0.045) can be an artifact when the permutation test (p = 0.996) disagrees. Multiple testing at borderline significance demands multiple methods.\n4. **Bootstrap at the protein level**, not the residue level, to account for within-protein composition correlations.\n\n## 6. Limitations\n\n1. **Selection bias.** We queried proteins with annotated disordered regions, biasing toward well-studied proteins with known disorder.\n2. **Annotation completeness.** Disorder annotations depend on experimental evidence and prediction tools available at curation time; newly discovered disordered regions may not be annotated.\n3. **Binary classification.** Classifying residues as \"disordered\" or \"structured\" ignores the continuum of protein dynamics and partially structured states.\n4. **Phylogenetic non-independence.** Human paralogs share evolutionary history; treating proteins as independent observations inflates statistical significance.\n5. **Structured definition.** Using helix/strand as the baseline excludes loops and coils, which may be ordered but flexible — potentially biasing the comparison.\n6. **Sample size.** 238 proteins with adequate annotations out of 500 downloaded; the full proteome (~20,000 proteins) may show different quantitative patterns.\n7. **Permutation resolution.** With 1,000 permutations, the minimum achievable p-value is ~0.001, limiting resolution for the most extreme enrichments.\n\n## 7.

But how strong is this enrichment compared to a null model that preserves overall amino acid composition? Raw frequency counts overstate enrichment because they ignore composition baselines — comparing IDR frequencies to a pooled baseline (which includes IDR residues) contaminates the reference with the signal.
