Abstract
Protein models can be of great assistance in functional genomics, as they provide the structural insights often necessary to understand protein function. Although comparative modelling is far from yielding perfect structures, this is still the most reliable method and the quality of the predictions is now well understood. Models can be classified according to their correctness and accuracy, which will impact their applicability and usefulness in functional genomics and a variety of situations.
