Description

This is a throwback puzzle to the early days of Foldit. These are the two chains of a bio-engineered variant of human insulin, which contains six cysteine residues that oxidize to form three disulfide bonds. We are revisiting old Foldit puzzles so we can see how useful the recent additions to the game have been and to provide newer players with problems that are still scientifically relevant.
