Description

This is a throwback puzzle to the early days of Foldit. This small domain is part of a larger protein that mediates interactions between other proteins in human development. This protein contains several cysteine residues, but we are modeling them in a reducing environment, so they should NOT form disulfide bonds. We are revisiting old Foldit puzzles so we can see how useful the recent additions to the game have been.
