Interactive Modeling of Protein Structures

Computational simulation of the protein structure prediction is one of the most time-intensive supercomputer applications today. UC Davis researchers have developed a new algorithm to generate initial conditions for such simulations through the interactive generation and manipulation of such structures. The structures developed through this program can then be input to the computational simulation methods, greatly reducing the time required to test these sequences.
