Resetting the puzzle will cycle through 10 different server predictions (this target is so tough, they are all different) and they are available in the Alignment Tool so you can use partial threading between them. Please try out each start.

Resetting the puzzle will cycle through 7 different server predictions (that are similar to one another) and they are available in the Alignment Tool so you can use partial threading between them. Please try out each start, as the topology that initially scores poorly may actually be the closest to the native and will eventually score better than everything else

This is a short 42-residue protein found in duckbilled platypus venom for new players to try out after completing the Introductory Puzzles. The native is shown as a guide on this puzzle, so try using everything you've learned in the Intro levels to match the native fold. The guide can be turned on/off with Shift-S.

This particular puzzle is a test-run involving a potentially very useful hydrogen-producing catalyst, attached to four symmetric chains. For now, we just want to see what sorts of interesting structures you can come up with (see the new blogpost for more details). We’re using the "ResidueIE filter" again to make it tougher to expose hydrophobic residues and bury polar groups.

You've seen this design puzzle before, but look more closely! The Frizzled protein occurs in a number of forms. Last time we gave you a form of Frizzled with a narrow pocket. This time we are giving you a form of Frizzled with a wider pocket. There are a couple of rules: You can mutate any residue on the helix but none on Frizzled and the small binding helix must stay in helical shape. We've also added a new filter that we call "Residue Interaction Energy". Natural proteins avoid putting Tryptophan, Phenylalanine, and Tyrosine on the surface. However, Foldit often gives a score bonus if you load up the surface of your design with Tryptophan. The Residue Interaction Energy filter helps to counteract that, helping you make better designs. Enjoy and thanks for all of your efforts!

This currently unsolved short protein does not have any templates that we can use, so to prepare for CASP ROLL we are giving it to you as an extended chain. Use all your skills to fold it up as best as you can. The secondary structure predictions are provided on the starting model, with more details posted in the puzzle comments.
