Name: Protein Folding and Secondary Structure Prediction
ID: m11116
Language: English (en)
Summary: This is a brief introduction to the protein folding problem and methods for protein secondary structure prediction. The "Folding@home" project, Stanford University, is used as an example of one approach to studying the protein folding problem. Various secondary structure prediction tools are introduced.
