If you are new to Foldit, here are detailed instructions to get you started:

_____________

If you want to fold proteins, know that there are many ways to play and this variety is the main value of Foldit :

  • try all puzzles not only "Beginners" ones,
  • fold first the ones you like the most,
  • try it by yourself to understand what works and what doesn't,
  • ask for tips in global chat when you think you don't understand something.

Make sure you have followed these tutorials:

  • Lonely Sheets,
  • Lock and Lower,
  • Rebuild,
  • Structure and Rebuild,
  • Control over Clashing,

before starting this puzzle.
