Description

This U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein auxiliary factor protein is currently unsolved by x-ray crystallography. We are giving it to you as a freestyle puzzle. Please use the secondary structure predictions that are posted in the puzzle comments, as we believe them to be very accurate. We have included them in the starting structure as well.

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 three Valines at residues 87-89 are highly predicted to be part of a sheet. However, the Valine at residue 31 is highly predicted to be part of a helix.
