Description

This is a throwback puzzle to the early days of Foldit. This toxin is produced in the intestines of the African black mamba. The protein contains ten cysteines that oxidize to form five disulfide bonds. We are revisiting old Foldit puzzles so we can see how useful the recent additions to the game have been.

How do I play when the program gives an error message: Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with given CA certificates…

What's the protocol for solving this issue?

would we be right in assuming that the issues with in game and site scores will be sorted here shortly?

Or are we all wasting our time?
