For the last puzzle for R0001 (which is due next week) we are giving you the 5 BAKER-ROSETTASERVER predictions, generated using Rosetta@home. Resetting the puzzle will cycle through these 5 server models and they are available in the Alignment Tool so you can use partial threading between them.

We want to let you work on the top 5 Foldit predictions for the first CASP ROLL target. We are providing you with early states of those models so that you don't start trapped in local energy minima. Resetting the puzzle will cycle through 5 player predictions that are also available in the Alignment Tool so you can use partial threading. We will then repost this with RosettaServer predictions later this week.

The fifth CASP ROLL target, R0005, is due in 2 weeks so we are skipping the freestyle puzzle and providing you with server predictions. Luckily this is not a big protein and the Alignment Tool has an extended chain that you can work with (if you don't want to be influenced by the server predictions). Resetting the puzzle will cycle through 10 different server predictions. They are also available in the Alignment Tool so you can use partial threading. The secondary structure prediction are posted in the puzzle comments.

This is a Beginner puzzle for new players that have recently completed the Intro Puzzles. The starting model is very far from the correct native structure, can you use the Foldit tools you just learned to fix the model and match the guide? For help with Intro Puzzles, visit http://tinyurl.com/foldit-help . Make sure you have completed the Intro Puzzles (at least up to Level 4-5) before attempting these more difficult Science Puzzles. For players with fewer than 150 global points.

This puzzle is designed for veteran Foldit players to help new players, so this version of the puzzle is only worth global 50 points.

This puzzle had to be taken down due to a bug with the new Alignment Tool in the developer preview. You can load your solutions from this puzzle into Puzzle 510b.

This is a repost of Puzzle 505, but we've added the 5 BAKER-ROSETTASERVER predictions, generated using Rosetta@home. Resetting the puzzle will cycle through the same top 5 Foldit player predictions from Puzzle 505, as well as these 5 server models. They are all available in the Alignment Tool so you can use partial threading and you can load your previous solutions from Puzzle 505 as well.

We are revisting old Foldit puzzles so we can compare results to see how useful the recent additions to the game have been. Players will NOT be able to load in any previous solutions for these puzzles. The seventh Revisiting Puzzle also goes back to May 2009: http://fold.it/portal/node/986127 . For players with fewer than 150 global points.
