 Fold It!
 #265 - Richard - Created: 5/13/2008 22:06 - Last Update: 5/13/2008 22:23 

Fold It is a game developed by the University of Washington (of Rosetta@Home protein folding fame), which lets people interact with proteins as puzzles. The objective is to fold proteins as efficiently as possible, which is done by wiggling and shaking it and manipulating details of the proteins. The game includes a number of tutorial levels which allow for practice in the art of protein folding. The game keeps on-line scores and lets users compete in groups as well.

The program currently is available for Windows and Macintosh, with a Linux version coming. The game can be downloaded at http://fold.it.

See a press release here.
