Description
The main goal of this research project is to identify an unknown protein and its biological function. Tools used will include BLAST, Inter-pro, DALI, Foldseek, CLEAN, and BRENDA to compare sequences, find similar motifs, and confirm 3-D structures. By using these multiple biotechnical tools, I hope to gain an understanding of how to recognize protein sequences and use the similarities to determine potential functions.
