David Baker's lab has released a game based on protein folding (can you fold a protein properly?)
Links to the slashdot summary. and the game.

That is awesome! I've been wanting to do something like that for years.. Ever since I first heard of the ESP game from Luis Von Ahn at CMU. I wonder how their system works..

Ack.. must finish PhD..

thanks, for the post!

Does anyone know of a web utility that will predict the structure of short protein sequences using ab initio folding?

Or should I just get really good at this game and then do it myself?

You might try this, it seems to have a quite a few methods in it

predictprotein.org

but I hope you don't stop playing the game. You never know what it could lead to!
