Protein Structure Initiative (PSI)
The Structural Genomics Project aims at determination of
the 3D structure of all proteins. This aim can be
achieved in four steps :
-
Organize known protein sequences into families.
-
Select family representatives as targets.
-
Solve the 3D structure of targets by X-ray crystallography or NMR spectroscopy.
-
Build models for other proteins by homology to solved 3D structures.
This site supports SELECTION, REGISTRATION, and TRACKING of Protein Families
and Representative Targets.
