Description

We are giving you this currently unsolved protein as an extended chain. Use all your beta-sheet forming skills to fold it up as best as you can. The secondary structure predictions are posted in the puzzle comments, but we have included them in the starting structure as well.

Comments

[beta_helix]

Here is the sequence logo predicted by the SAM server.

H = helix
E = sheet
C = loop (or coil)

The taller the letter at each position, the higher the probability of that specific secondary structure for that amino acid.

For example, the amino acid Valine at residue 12 is highly predicted to be part of a sheet. However, the Valine at residue 41 has an equal probability of being anything.
