Recent advances in ab initio protein structure prediction show promise, but reliable protocols are still needed. This review examines current methods to guide future research in computational protein folding.

Area of Science:

  • Computational Biology
  • Structural Bioinformatics
  • Protein Science

Background:

  • Significant progress has been achieved in *ab initio* protein structure prediction.
  • The third Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction (CASP3) highlighted recent advancements.
  • However, consistently reliable prediction protocols are not yet available.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the characteristics of current *ab initio* protein structure prediction protocols.
  • To identify the basis for recent progress in the field.
  • To suggest potential future research directions.

Main Methods:

  • Review and analysis of existing *ab initio* protein structure prediction methodologies.
  • Examination of features contributing to recent successes in the field.
