Some Current F@H Project Descriptions w/Diseases

Post by Apoptosis »

A bunch of people are folding, but don't know what their PC's are working on other than a work number. I have taken the time to list several current work projects and the diseases that they are being done for. Right now F@H is worlking on Calcium Sensitivity, Alzheimers, Diabetes, Huntington's diease and Collagen-Related research. I'm not going to list all the projects, but here are a select few.

p217_c28Murea -- Calcium Sensitivity
p218_c24Murea -- Calcium Sensitivity
p219_c21Murea -- Calcium Sensitivity
p220_c20Murea -- Calcium Sensitivity

p909_vill_str0-- Alzheimers
p910_vill_str0_rf -- Alzheimers

p1153_hALDR_WT -- Diabetes

p1405_polyQ44 in water -- Huntington's
p1406_Q44x2 in water -- Huntington's
p1407_polyQ20x2 in water -- Huntington's
p1408_Q20x4 in water -- Huntington's
p1409_polyQ26 in water -- Huntington's
p1410_Q26x2 in water -- Huntington's
p1411_Q26x3 in water -- Huntington's
p1412_polyQ36 in water -- Huntington's
p1413_polyQ36x2 in water -- Huntington's

Looking up my folding history it is shown that I have completed numerous WU's of some of the above mentioned Work Units... pretty cool!
