1.7. Summary <strong>and</strong> outlook<br />

In this chapter, the recent additions to the CAPDE arsenal <strong>of</strong> computational tools,<br />

servers <strong>and</strong> databases have been briefly reviewed. The rapid accumulation <strong>of</strong> the<br />

knowledge on protein structures <strong>and</strong> sequence-structure-function relationships foresee<br />

the continuous amelioration <strong>of</strong> these methods. In particular, machine-learning approaches,<br />
