Description

This is the ninth puzzle in the poly-proline helix design series! The starting structure is still a 90 residue protein with a 6 residue helix. All residues are mutable, and keeping all buried polars satisfied remains a key component of a good structure, as is a hydrophobic core and well defined secondary structures. We should be introducing a score filter very soon which will allow you to see what atoms are problematic. This should be a big help to Foldit players!
