Swiss-Model
Swiss-Model is an online tool that predicts the three-dimensional structure of a protein based on its amino acid sequence. By comparing your protein sequence to known structures in a database, it builds a model that shows how the protein folds. This helps scientists understand the protein's function or design new drugs. Think of it as a sophisticated "shape predictor" that quickly provides a visual, structural representation when experimental methods like lab crystallography are difficult or time-consuming. Swiss-Model streamlines protein modeling for researchers across biology and medicine.
