What are the similarities and differences between "template based" and "template free" methods for protein structure prediction?

Biology
1 answer:
andrew-mc [135]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

In fact, the key difference between "template based" and "template free" structural prediction methods lies in the different conformational initialization methods. Template based prediction method obtains the initial conformation by searching and recognizing the known structure which has homology or structural similarity with the target protein as the template; template free prediction method usually constructs the initial conformation from the beginning with a small structure fragment.

At present, no matter which method is used, the known structural information in PDB database will be used to construct an initial conformation which is far better than random conformation, thus significantly reducing the pressure of conformation search, including reducing the amount of calculation and reducing the dependence on high-precision force field

Nuts are a good source of vitamin E. <br> a. True<br> b. False
mixer [17]
Nuts indeed are a good source of vitamin E. This is true. However, when talking about nuts we have to consider that not all nuts have the same nutritional information nor do all of them have plenty of vitamin E. While we can say this for most, it is necessary to be wary of making such statements.

Which veterinary professionals design the veterinary curriculum? please help ​
Virty [35]

Answer:

Recent studies of the veterinary profession have established a need for training in various areas beyond those directed toward building competence and proficiency as a clinician. To address this need, a workshop was designed whose objective was to develop a detailed outline of a model curriculum that would encompass the skills, knowledge, aptitudes, and attitudes deemed essential for economic success in the veterinary profession. The model curriculum was created from comprehensive input provided by consultants and educators. Constraints for implementation of this curriculum are identified, and future directions are discussed.
