Description

The structure of this protein is still unknown. Secondary structure predictions (from PSIPRED) are marked on the starting structure, and provide clues about where the protein might form helices and sheets!

my scoreboard is totally different from what is showing up on my page and on the listings under this puzzle… others' scores also wrong
Is there a server problem with this puzzle?

Do you actually use a different score function for proteins that have a high content in hydrophobic amino acids like this protein?`

Since the sequence is predicted to have at least 4 or 5 transmembrane regions (see below, where the Ms show the membrane parts), do you distinguish between these hydrophobic parts and the soluble parts?

Or do you really want to solve the structure in solution (considering that this protein would not be stable in solution and rather form aggregates)?
