Description
This project is aiming to present the proposed function(s) of a protein whose function is currently unknown. To do this, research will be done using tools such as BLAST to identify the sequence of the protein, InterPro to understand the protein domains/family, as well as DALI and FoldSeek to look at the structure of the protein. The results of the research and data collected by these tools will help to determine the proposed function(s) of the protein. Understanding the function(s) of the protein will potentially help further scientific understanding and research.
