Three-dimensional protein structure prediction from amino acid sequence has been a thought-provoking task for decades, but it of pivotal importance as it provides a better understanding of its function. In recent years, the methods for prediction of protein structures have advanced considerably. Computational techniques and increase in protein sequence and structure databases have influence the laborious protein structure determination process. Still there is no single method which can predict all the protein structures. In this review, we describe the four stages of protein structure determination. We have also explored the currenttechniques used to uncover the protein structure and highpoint best suitable method for a given protein.
