Comment What's happening in parallel? Structural Genomics (Score 1) 196

I think structural genomics which is also being researched is provides useful information to complement the genome project. This is the 3D structural determination of protein domains based on the amino acid sequence of the protein. With a database of these structure-sequence relations, when a new gene is encountered, the the 3D structure can be inferred and from there drug design and all the other medical benefits people talk about are possible.
