The objective of homology modeling is to build a 3D model for a
protein of which the structure is unknown (the target) on the basis
of sequence similarity to proteins of known structure (the
templates). Computational tools provide researchers to understand
physic-chemical and structural properties of proteins . A large
number of computational tools are available from different sources
for making predictions regarding the identification and structure
prediction of proteins . The major drawbacks of experimental
methods that have been used to characterize the proteins of various
organisms are the time frame involved, high cost and the fact that
these methods are not amenable to high throughput techniques. In
silico approaches provide a viable solution to these problems. The
amino acids sequence provides most of the information required for
determining and characterizing the molecule's function, physical
and chemical properties. Computationally based characterization of
the features of the proteins found or predicted in completely
sequenced proteomes is an important task in the search for
knowledge of protein functions.
