Description

The structure of this protein has already been solved and published, but close inspection suggests that there are some problems with the published solution. We'd like to see if Foldit players can use the same electron density data to reconstruct a better model. Some players may recall seeing this protein or a similar protein before, it's a commonly solved (and mis-solved) protein.

A little late, but as the puzzle comments suggest, puzzle 2167 seems to have the same sequence as this one.

It's a good idea to read the puzzle comments at the beginning of the puzzle. I plan on trying it some time.

The sequence seems to be the same, but the points are much much higher. Something had to be changed in the environment.
