According to recent research from Umea, Sweden, "The ever increasing speed of DNA sequencing widens the discrepancy between the number of known gene products, and the knowledge of their function and structure. Proper annotation of protein sequences is therefore crucial if the missing information is to be deduced from sequence-based similarity comparisons."
"These comparisons become exceedingly difficult as the pairwise identities drop to very low values. To improve the accuracy of domain identification, we exploit the fact that the three-dimensional structures of domains are much more conserved than their sequences. Based on structure-anchored multiple sequence ...
