Description

This sandbox puzzle features a symmetric design by Skippysk8s, Enzyme, and an anonymous teammate in Puzzle 2050: Symmetric D2 Tetramer Design. This design has several polar residues that form a fully satisfied H-bond network buried at the interface between subunits. The polar atoms in this H-bond network will help ensure correct assembly, since these polar atoms are likely to create unstable BUNS in off-target assemblies. For more, check out Foldit Lab Report #26 on YouTube! This sandbox puzzle is non-competitive and will not award any points.
