Figure 1

A) Flow chart outlining how protein sequences are processed by PROTEUS. Each query sequence is simultaneously processed through PROTEUS' three de novo predictors (lower left corner) and through a BLAST comparison and global alignment (via XALIGN) against the PDB, to yield a 3D-to-2D mapping. The two secondary structure predictions are merged and filtered to produce a final consensus prediction. B) Detail illustrating how the two predictions are merged in the final processing step.
