Novice Overall Prediction Electron DensityThe 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. This is a big structure, so the Trim tool is recommended, and there's several spots where segments are missing due to a lack of density. It's also different from most of the other puzzles we've had in this series before as it is an ion channel and has a different type of fold as a result!
