Optimal sequence alignment, followed by a 3D structure alignment, results in prediction of a correct, 3D-hierarchical biomolecular structure. Optimal – consistent with current evolutionary concepts. Wrong sequence alignment typically results in a wrong structure.
Homology analysis and structure prediction. Making use of molecular evolution concepts and Darwinian-type approach.

Structures in the crystalline state can be interpreted in terms of packing forces, properties of hydrogen bonds, a kind of consensus between the intramolecular energy and the intermolecular interaction energy, etc. B.Lesyng, G.A.Jeffrey, H.A.Maluszynska, A Model for the Hydrogen-bond-length Probability Distributions in the Crystal Structures of Small-molecule Components of the Nucleic Acids, Acta Crystallog., B44, 193-8(1988) However, this problem can also be seen in a different, more abstract way, namely as minimization of the free energy of a selected molecular system in its real molecular environment – in this particular case this is the environment formed by surrounding molecules with imposed constraints resulting from the symmetry.
