Here, a new method for sequence\u2010independent structural alignment is presented that allows comparison of an experimental protein structure with an arbitrary low\u2010resolution protein tertiary model. The heuristic algorithm is given and then used to show that it can describe random structural alignments of proteins with different folds with good accuracy by an extreme value distribution. From this observation, a structural similarity score between two proteins or two different conformations of the same protein is derived from the likelihood of obtaining a given structural alignment by chance. The performance of the derived score is then compared with well established, consensus manual\u2010based scores and data sets. We found that the new approach correlates better than other tools with the\n                    <jats:italic>gold standard<\/jats:italic>\n                    provided by a human evaluator. Timings indicate that the algorithm is fast enough for routine use with large databases of protein models. Overall, our results indicate that the new program (MAMMOTH) will be a good tool for protein structure comparisons in structural genomics applications.
