<span style="color:green">'''Assignment 3: IIB. Tertiary Structure:'''</span> Map the two CATH domains in the GS; Include in your discussion what CATH database records<ref>Pearl, F., ''et.al.''The CATH Domain Structure Database and related resources Gene3D and DHS provide comprehensive domain family information for genome analysis, Nucl. Acids Res. 2005 22: D247-D252</ref>; explain the significance of each domain. In your discussion show the features of the CATH architecture and topology that provides them with the designation. As a hint you may want to use the Jena Library Jmol[http://www.imb-jena.de/IMAGE.html], which can be access through PDBsum[http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbsum/] to assist you in mapping the CATH domains. The RSCB site may not list the domains correctly.[http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/home/home.do] | <span style="color:green">'''Assignment 3: IIB.
