Structural similarity provides deeper protein space insight than sequence alone

This chain reasons that protein structure-based comparisons, enabled by recent advances in structure prediction and search tools, provide more conserved and functionally informative grouping of proteins than sequence-based methods. It explains why structural clustering and mapping yield better insights for understanding function, families, subfamilies, and outlier detection.
