Why use Distance Maps?
Distance and Contact Maps show the protein in a way that does not depend on the protein's orientation in 3D space. If two structures for the same protein look different in 3D, it could be (1) because they are identical structures viewed from different directions or (2) because they are truly different structures. Looking at their Distance or Contact Maps can tell if the two structures are actually the same or truly different.

Homologous proteins give similar-looking Contact Maps:

Future versions?
It would be neat if we could use html code within the Recipe Output window. If you know how to use html code within the Recipe Output window, Thanks!

If you like this recipe, please try DistMap1:
DistMap1 (http://fold.it/portal/recipe/101679) |
|
DistMap0 finds the distances between every pair of alpha-carbons in the protein
and makes several maps of these distances. It gives output like below:
The final map above is small enough to appear in the Recipe Output,
so it can be included in a snapshot of the protein when a puzzle ends.
Below is a sample snapshot made right after the DistMap0 run above.
