Folding?

computerbias · 06-14-04, 05:57 PM

I was curious if anyone could give me a quick and concise explanation of exactly what folding is all about, and what it takes to do it.

I guess this is probably silly to most of you, but I can't honestly say I know anything of it.

Since people hate clicking on links and going to other places ill sum it up. Folding is a project that replicates the folding of proteins in our bodies. This project simulates real folding to see how and why proteins fold and also to possibly find why proteins misfold, which causes disease. This will help to find possible cures to many diseases such as cancer and parkinsons. To get involved in the project you can visit the website or install the one click that has been made on this forum. FOLD ON!!!!
