Description

The fold of this Streptococcal Protein is trapped in a local minimum. Although it looks good, it is incorrect. This is a short 57-residue protein for new players to try out after completing the Introductory Puzzles. The native is shown as a guide on this puzzle, so try using everything you have learned in the Intro levels to match the native fold. For players with fewer than 150 global points.
