Description

We are looking for the best locations to place & design FIVE linked residues on the surface of Influenza H3 Hemagglutinin. We have placed 2 helices on either side so that it will be easier to build scaffolds for your designs. Mutate the 5 sidechains while looking for good hydrophobic pockets or residues to make strong hydrogen bonds to. If you are new to Foldit, make sure you have completed Intro Puzzle 5-2, and 7-1 through 7-4 before trying this puzzle. For players with fewer than 15 global points.
