Abstract:
Finding structure of a protein sequence is an important field in Biochemistry. As it is a long and costly endeavor finding techniques and procedures to assist biochemist in their efforts to predict the structure of protein. The study of structure of protein is important as structure very closely related to the function that a protein performs. Thus finding the structure is the first step in finding the function of a protein.
Our final year project consists of three phases first selection of technique to predict protein structure. For that we reviewed various techniques but then we decided on using the already available data to provide to produce results that have more reliability as they are extracted from already reviewed protein structures. We establish a relationship between structure and sequence of protein through their families and on the basis of this relationship we predict structure.
Second phase was to collect data from various sources on internet according to our needs and create a dataset that fulfilled our requirements.
And third was to create a protein structure viewer and a tool to generate prediction.
