Homology modeling
Levinthal’s paradox (1969) If we assume three possible states for every flexible
dihedral angle in the backbone of a 100-residue protein, the number of possible backbone configurations is 3200. Even an incredibly fast computational or physical sampling in 10-15 s would mean that a complete sampling would take 1080 s, which exceeds the age of the universe by more than 60 orders of magnitude.

Protein folding by MDPROTEIN FOLDING:
A Glimpse of the Holy Grail?Herman J. C. Berendsen*
"The Grail had many different manifestations
throughout its long history, and many have claimed to
possess it or its like". We might have seen a glimpse of
it, but the brave knights must prepare for a long
pursuit.

Homology modeling
Flowchart of homology (comparative) modeling
From Marti-Renom et al.
Fold recognitionFind, from a library of folds, the 3D templatethat accommodates the target sequence best.
Also known as “threading” or “inverse folding”
Useful for twilight-zone sequences
Fold recognition (aligning sequence to structure)
(David Shortle, 2000)
3D->1D score
On X-ray, NMR, and computed models

Marti-Renom et al. (2000)
Reliability and uses of comparative models
Pitfalls of comparative modeling
Cannot correct alignment errors More similar to template than to true
structure Cannot predict novel folds
