* A major overhaul and update to the Small Molecule Design tool.
* Two new tutorials demonstrating how to use Small Molecule Design.
* A new "Binding Site" option in the "View Protein" section of the View Options -- this is like Cartoon Ligand, but hides parts of the protein which are far from the ligand.

Foldit Education Mode spells out the science of proteins. Built for students, teachers, and you!
NEWS
- Education Mode now available from the Foldit puzzle menu
PUZZLE UPDATES
- Protein binder design for TGF-beta, IL-2 receptor, CD47
- Symmetric design puzzles
DESIGN OF THE MONTH
- A binder design for the CD47 target, created by nspc in Puzzle 2043, makes excellent hydrophobic contacts with the CD47 target and does a good job of satisfying buried polar atoms with H-bonds. Take a look for yourself in the October Design of the Month sandbox puzzle.
Temporary server issues
We are currently experiencing a problem with our server that will prevent users from signing from the Foldit application or playing Foldit online.
Update: Everyone should now have normally functioning connections to the server again. Thanks for your patience!
