Description

The PduN protein is thought to self-assemble into symmetric oligomers that form microcompartments in bacteria. The structure of PduN is unknown, although there are several homologous proteins with published structures, which are provided as templates in this puzzle. Use the Alignment Tool to overlay the PduN residues with the templates and find the best-scoring structure of PduN! See the new blog post for more information about this protein.
