''Structural alignment'' refers to the alignment, in three dimensions, between two or more molecular models. In the case of proteins, this is usually performed without reference to the sequences of the proteins. This may suggest evolutionary and functional relationships that are not discernable from sequence comparisions<ref>PMID: 10686110</ref>.

The purpose of this article is to help in choosing a server or software package for performing structural alignment. Characteristics of structural alignment servers and software packages are listed, along with results of testing with a few examples.
