CONCLUSION • CSB has Limited Impact due to Inefficient Conformational Sampling • Novel Algorithms Supporting Natural DOF May Offer The Solution • Our Novel Approach May Open New Avenues • In The Refinement and Interpretation of Experimental Data • In The Use of Structural Information in Molecular Biology • Atomic Level Understanding of the CDMB may be a reality with NC “If the code does indeed have some logical foundation then it is legitimate to consider all the evidence, both good and bad, in any attempt to deduce it.” F.
