}Predicting the three-dimensional (3-D) structure of a protein that has no templates in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) is a very hard, still an impossible task. Computational prediction methods have been developed during the last years, but the problem still remains challenging. In this paper we present a new strategy based on Interval Arithmetic to store structural information obtained from experimental protein templates and predict native-like approximate three-dimensional structures of proteins…

The structure of an ordered protein is essential for the understanding of its function and the best de novo prediction methods use mainly statistical information from known structures, which predicts the structure by a comparison to a similar sequence.

Initial results show that PHI-PSI performs better than distribution-based guesses for most of the φ and angle values, and extends it to include a recursive procedure to refine its initial prediction and a “window” of varying sizes to look at different contexts of an input.
