Foldit is an online game where citizen-scientists tackle problem proteins. Foldit is running a series of puzzles that invite players to design a brand-new protein that will attach to the COVID-19 coronavirus. A successful design could be a first step towards a treatment.
In this video, we'll look at customizing your Foldit setup a little before you start folding. We'll also look at what Foldit shows you at the beginning of one of the coronavirus puzzles. Then in the next video, we'll look at making a protein that will score well in Foldit, and try to get it to stick to coronavirus.
