The empirical observation that homologous proteins fold to similar structures is used to enhance the capabilities of anab initioalgorithm to predict protein conformations. A penalty function that forces homologous proteins to look alike is added to the potential and is employed in the coupled energy optimization of several homologous proteins. Significant improvement in the quality of the computed structures (as compared with the computational folding of a single protein) is demonstrated and discussed.
