_____ of protein structures is a useful tool in building 3D structures for proteins that do not have a solved x-ray structure. It uses the x-ray structure of a related protein as a template and the amino acid sequence of the protein of interest.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Homology modeling is the correct answer because it involves using the structure of a related protein (the template) to predict the 3D structure of another protein based on its amino acid sequence. This method is particularly useful for proteins that do not have a solved x-ray crystallography structure.
