G-quadruplex structures can be computationally predicted from DNA or RNA sequence motifs, [11] [12] but their actual structures can be quite varied within and between the motifs, which can number over 100,000 per genome. Their activities in basic genetic processes are an active area of research in telomere, gene regulation, and functional ...
The protein structure prediction remains an extremely difficult and unresolved undertaking. The two main problems are the calculation of protein free energy and finding the global minimum of this energy. A protein structure prediction method must explore the space of possible protein structures which is astronomically large.

One of the easiest ways to understand algorithms for general structured prediction is the structured perceptron by Collins. [3] This algorithm combines the perceptron algorithm for learning linear classifiers with an inference algorithm (classically the Viterbi algorithm when used on sequence data) and can be described abstractly as follows:
This list of protein subcellular localisation prediction tools includes software, databases, and web services that are used for protein subcellular localization prediction. Some tools are included that are commonly used to infer location through predicted structural properties, such as signal peptide or transmembrane helices , and these tools ...
The goal in rational protein design is to predict amino acid sequences that will fold to a specific protein structure. Although the number of possible protein sequences is vast, growing exponentially with the size of the protein chain, only a subset of them will fold reliably and quickly to one native state.
The prediction process generally starts by employing a sequence based method (e.g. Interolog) to search for protein complex structures that are homologous to the query sequences. These known complex structures are then used as templates to structurally model the interaction between query sequences.
Thus, structure prediction software which relies on such homology can be expected to perform poorly in predicting structures of de novo proteins. [18] To improve accuracy of structure prediction for de novo proteins, new softwares have been developed. Namely, ESMFold is a newly developed large language model (LLM) for the prediction of protein ...
