COFACTOR is a structure-based method for biological function annotation of protein molecules. To use COFACTOR, user needs to provide a 3D-structural model of the protein of interest. COFACTOR will thread the structure through three comprehensive function libraries by local and global structure matches to identify functional sites and homologies. Functional insights, including ligand-binding site, gene-ontology terms, and enzyme classification, will be derived from the best functional homology template. The COFACTOR algorithm was ranked as the best method for function prediction in the community-wide CASP9 experiments held in 2010.
