<big>Homology modeling has become largely obsolete since the 2020 success of structure prediction by [[AlphaFold]] and other AI prediction systems. Rather than starting here, we suggest starting at [[How To Find A Structure]]. | |||

Empirical models are the most reliable, but if none are available, [[AlphaFold]] has an impressive track record of correctly predicting structures from sequence. Check the [http://alphafold.ebi.ac.uk AlphaFold Database] for a model of your protein of interest. You can also submit a sequence and get a prediction: [[How to predict structures with AlphaFold]]. Another model prediction service with a good track record is [http://robetta.bakerlab.org RoseTTaFold].

Another model prediction service with a good track record is [http://robetta.bakerlab.org RoseTTaFold]. Submit your sequence there, making sure to check ''RoseTTaFold'' as the method. With any of these methods, download the predicted [[PDB file]] and then upload it to [http://firstglance.jmol.org FirstGlance in Jmol] for exploration and analysis. FirstGlance automatically colors predicted models by reliability. | ||
