This CASP refinement target has 70 residues. We've been told that ~60% of this starting structure is correct. High Wiggle Power has been enabled for this puzzle.

For this target, the CASP11 organizers have provided additional "correct" contact predictions, which we have combined with the sparse data contacts from Puzzle 951. Contacts are scored with the Contact Map filter in this puzzle, and there is an upper limit of 4550 possible points from the filter. Players may load in solutions from Puzzle 951.

For this target, the CASP11 organizers have provided "sparse" experimental data about possible contacts in the protein. Contacts are scored with the Contact Map filter in this puzzle, and there is an upper limit of 3700 possible points from the filter. The starting structure is an extended chain; secondary structure predictions are unavailable at this time, but check back soon for updates!

This CASP refinement target has 96 residues. We've been told that ~34% of this starting structure is correct. High Wiggle Power has been enabled for this puzzle.

This design puzzle uses a Secondary Structure filter similar to that of Puzzle 937. Players will receive a 500 point bonus if fewer than 50% of residues are in helices; penalties are incurred if more than 50% of residues form helices. There are 3 additional filters: the Residue IE Score monitors that all PHE, TYR, and TRP residues are scoring well; the Core Existence filter checks that at least 30% of the residues are buried in the core of your design; and the Fragment filter scans for parts of your design that are unlikely to fold up naturally. The Baker Lab will run folding predictions on your solutions for this puzzle, and those that perform well will be synthesized in the lab. Remember, you can use the Upload for Scientists button for up to 3 designs that you want us to look at, even if they are not the best-scoring solutions!
