Systematic Structural AlignmentObjective: Find novel relationships

Example: Green Fluorescent Protein§ Nidogen-1: similar 11-stranded § beta-barrel and internal helices§ 3 Å RMSD, only 9% sequence identity§ Nidogen-1: component of basement membrane, no chromophore§ GFP and NID-1 may share common ancestor
