Description

This is a throwback puzzle to the early days of Foldit. Signals from the nervous system induce Ca²⁺ release within muscle cells. This muscle protein, which normally inhibits muscle contraction, changes shape in the presence of Ca²⁺ to allow muscle contraction. We are revisiting old Foldit puzzles so we can see how useful the recent additions to the game have been.
