Structure Prediction by Hybrid Approach

This is a cost effective approach for determining the protein structure. The computational prediction methods, such as initiating fragment assembly, advanced fold recognition, composite approaches, and molecular docking are regularly applied in recent times to expand our understanding of protein structures. Nevertheless, predicted structures are not given the same credits as their experimental counterparts.  Hybrid approach is a channel to overcome these disadvantages, by incorporating limited experimental measurements, reliable structures can be computed and unlikely predictions are eliminated. The current researches are showing great interest in this method of approach.
