Focusing on the protein folding problem, this book explores how a protein's amino acid sequence influences its three-dimensional structure and the physical processes involved in folding. It utilizes structural profiles as one-dimensional representations to analyze these complex relationships, providing insights into the vital roles proteins play in biological functions, from enzymatic reactions to muscle movement. The dual approach offers a comprehensive understanding of the intricate mechanisms behind protein structure and function.
