Python function to obtain secondary structure using Biopython

Question

[filipa.simoes93]

Hi,

I have to make a python function that is able to check the secondary structure information for each sequence present in a fasta file, using biopython.

Can somebody help me?

Does each sequence have a 3D structure already? If so, you pick up corresponding 3D structure PDB file after a blast and query the PDB file. Else, you'll have to look for secondary structure prediction algorithms.
