Module 3:  Structure Based Similarity

There's a great guide regarding how the predicted amino acid sequence sets up the structure of the polypeptide.  Well-studied genes with similar structure might have good clues as to what the gene your working on does.  This guide is in Dropbox (you don't need an account in Dropbox to get these, but it's handy free cloud storage.)  The guide can be downloaded here.
