Description

This is a throwback puzzle to the early days of Foldit. This protein helps to regulate oxidation in the cell; the starting structure is a model produced by Rosetta. This protein contains four cysteine residues, but in this state only two of them are expected to oxidize to form a single disulfide bond. We are revisiting old Foldit puzzles so we can see how useful the recent additions to the game have been.

This is, I believe, the 71st such throwback puzzle.

How many more are going to needed before whoever's responsible for looking at the results decides that enough data has been obtained to determine how useful the game additions have been?
