Question

Prof is not similar to PHD.

(a) True

(b) False

I had been asked this question by my college professor while I was bunking the class.

This question is from Coiled Coil Prediction topic in section Secondary Structure Prediction of Bioinformatics

Answer 1

The correct option is (b) False

To explain I would say: Prof stands for Protein forecasting. It is an algorithm that combines PSI-BLAST profiles and a multistaged neural network, similar to that in PHD. In addition, it uses a linear discriminant function to discriminate between the three states.
