Abstract
Genome sequencing projects continue to provide a flood of new protein sequences, and prediction methods remain an important means of adding structural information. Recently, there have been advances in secondar y structure prediction, which feed, in turn, into improved fold recogn ition algorithms. Finally, there have been technical improvements in c omparative modelling, and studies of the expected accuracy of three-di mensional structural models built by this method.
