3D PSSM predicts tertiary structure through

  1. homology

  2. threading

  3. abinitio

  4. Any of the above

B Correct answer
Explanation

3D-PSSM (Protein Secondary Structure Prediction Meta-server) predicts tertiary structures using fold recognition, which is synonymous with protein threading. Homology modeling requires higher sequence identity, while ab initio builds structures from scratch.
