Description

Note- 2620 was a mistaken repeat, and this is the puzzle that was intended. 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. This is a transporter protein that helps certain small molecules cross the cell membrane, hence the interesting shape!
