MCQ

Question

The computational approaches to predict the three-dimensional structures of proteins are : (A) Homology modeling (B) X-ray crystallography (C) NMR (D) Threading (E) Ab-initio Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

(A) only (B) and (C) only (A), (D) and (E) only Correct (C) only

Explanation

Protein structure prediction computationally includes homology modeling using known templates, threading fitting sequence onto fold library, and ab initio modeling based on physicochemical principles. X-ray crystallography and NMR are experimental determination methods, not computational, requiring crystals or magnetic resonance data.
