A brief review of protein sequence pattern matching

Of the many current and abandoned methods for the prediction of a protein’s tertiary structure from its amino acid sequence, the diverse yet related set of pattern matching techniques offer, perhaps, the best potential for solving this fundamental problem in molecular biology. The need for reliable structure prediction techniques has never been greater, and with the future prospect of sequencing the entire human genome, the necessity of a workable solution can only become significantly more acute.
