The recently developed direct coupling analysis (DCA) method has greatly improved the accuracy with which residue-residue contacts can be predicted from multiple sequence alignments. Contact prediction accuracy, though, is still often not sufficient for complete ab initio protein structure prediction. DCA can, however, support protein structure studies in several ways.
