Exploring the Secondary Structure of Human Prion Protein. Excited to share my recent bioinformatics journey! I generated and analyzed the secondary structure predictions of a human prion protein using Expasy and Phyre2, two powerful tools in computational biology. Secondary structure prediction helps us understand the folding, stability, and function of proteins, which is critical for insights into diseases and drug design. Phyre2 provides homology-based modeling for accurate structural predictions, while Expasy provides a comprehensive platform for sequence analysis. For deeper insight into the structure, I visualized one of the predictions using PyMOL, a versatile molecular visualization tool, to better interpret the protein's architecture. This experience enhanced my bioinformatic skills and easied the structural studies in understanding complex biological system. This experience inspired me doing such self learning. #Bioinformatics #ProteinModeling #PrionResearch #ComputationalBiology
