Abstract: A method for predicting at least one fitness value of a protein is implemented on a computer and includes the following steps: encoding the amino acid sequence of the protein into a numerical sequence according to a protein database, the numerical sequence comprising a value for each amino acid of the sequence; calculating a protein spectrum according to the numerical sequence; and for each fitness: comparing the calculated protein spectrum with protein spectrum values of a predetermined database, said database containing protein spectrum values for different values of said fitness, predicting a value of said fitness according to the comparison step.
