Abstract
The performance of the protein structure prediction server pro‐sp3‐TASSER in CASP8 is described. Compared to CASP7, the major improvement in prediction is in the quality of input models to TASSER. These improvements are due to the PRO‐SP3 threading method, the improved quality of contact predictions provided by TASSER_2.0, multiple short TASSER simulations for building the full‐length model, and the accuracy of model selection using the TASSER‐QA quality assessment method. Finally, we analyze the overall performance and highlight some successful predictions of the pro‐sp3‐TASSER server. Proteins 2009.Keywords
