Poulsen IDP/IUP random coil chemical shifts

The following Javascript will calculate the random coil chemical shifts for any protein sequence. The chemical shifts and the general sequence correction factors are from [1] whereas the temperature coefficients and the glycine correction factors are from [2]. The principle behind the determination of the sequence correction factors is described in [3]. The correction factors for perdeuteration are from [4]. The script was coded by Alex Maltsev for (now-late) Flemming Poulsen. The version of this page hosted by the University of Copenhagen can be found here.
