Protein Structure Prediction Center
Welcome to the Protein Structure Prediction Center!

Our goal is to help advance the methods of identifying protein structure from sequence. The Center has been organized to provide the means of objective testing of these methods via the process of blind prediction. In addition to support of the CASP meetings our goal is to promote an evaluation of prediction methods on a continuing basis.

CASP experiments aim at establishing the current state of the art in protein structure prediction, identifying what progress has been made, and highlighting where future effort may be most productively focused. The organizers are thankful to CASP assessors for their valuable contribution to this field.

There have been seven previous CASP experiments.

CASP1 (1994) | CASP2 (1996) | CASP3 (1998) | CASP4 (2000) | CASP5 (2002) | CASP6 (2004) | CASP7 (2006) | CASP8 (2008)

Request for CASP8 targets
Dear CASP8 participants, The CASP8 prediction experiment has just begun, and as always, it will only work if we have the help of the experimental community in providing targets. Many targets hav ...
CASP8 started
We have released the first two CASP8 targets. Good luck everyone in predicting these and all the subsequent CASP8 targets. Please, pay special attention to the column "Type" in the Target List. In ...
CASP8 server dry run - April 28
On April 28 we will have the last round of dry runs for the servers. Please get your servers ready. The first CASP8 targets will be released on May 5. ...
