Description

This is a followup to Puzzle 1249, with a new density map derived from a Foldit player solution. The solution seems to fit the data, but needs some refinement! Players may load in solutions from Puzzle 1249.



The structure of this protein has already been solved and published, but close inspection suggests that there are some problems with the published solution. We'd like to see if Foldit players can use the same electron density data to reconstruct a better model.

The magnitude of the density might have been diminished when we derived this map, so shares are probably not getting the same density bonus that they received in the previous puzzle. In future puzzles, we can take some steps to offset this kind of discrepancy.

This starting position is the same Foldit solution from Puzzle 1249 that was used to derive this density map.

The high score in our group is 11990 (Susume's fold).

I just loaded her solo shared at 11982 points.

Evo requirement is 13619 points.

…it's possible I won't be able to evo this.

It seems from my team that evolving design evolved from old group solution needs a lot of points to be further evolved by other team member.
Evolving a reset by any player is ok.

My solo on 1274 came from my solo on 1249, so even though it was brought into 1274 as a solo and not as an evo, and has been saved in 1274 and loaded in a new track and saved again before sharing, it is apparently still tainted.
