• Protein Folding - a study of the molecular dynamics of protein folding to create greater understanding of the behavior of cancer cells and how they interact with potential new treatments

The project runs on the Parabon Computation Frontier Compute Engine platform. To participate in the project, download and run the project's secure Java client. As of January 15, 2007, the client is available for Windows (XP/Vista/2000), Linux (2.4 kernel or higher), and Mac OSX (version 10.2 or later).

On October 21, 2002, the project announced that it achieved its initial goal: to "simulate the folding dynamics of proteins and make quantitative predictions for how [protein folding] works. This has been a 'holy grail' of computational biology." Specifically, the project simulated the folding of a man-made chain of 23 amino acids called BBA5. The simulation's measurements and folding-time matched physical measurements and folding-time of the protein observed in a lab. The achievement was published in the November, 2002, edition of Nature, in an article titled "Absolute comparison of simulated and experimental protein-folding dynamics." In October and November, 2004, the project's lead developer and research scientist, Guha Jayachandran, won the top award at the 2004 Biomedical Computation at Stanford (bcats) conference, and Vijay Pande has been named a 2004 Technovator.

On January 10, 2003, the project broke the 90,000 active CPU mark. On October 10, 2003, it broke the 120,000 active CPU mark. On April 24, 2004, it broke the 150,000 active CPU mark. On September 9, 2004, it broke the 1,000,000 total CPUs and 100 TFLOPs marks. On January 14, 2005, it broke the 170,000 actuve CPU mark. On September 20, 2005, it broke the 200,000 active CPU mark.

On November 28, 2001, the project began studies (110 and 5100) on Alzheimer's Disease. On May 8, 2002, the project began studies (503 and 504) on Huntington's Disease, a disease similar to Alzheimer's Disease in that it is caused by protein misfolding. See a list of all of the project's current studies. In June, 2002, the project started using the Gromacs molecular dynamics modeling software. This software allows the project to simulate larger proteins more accurately and much more quickly than the previous software. As of August 12, 2002, the Gromacs software has successfully modeled one of the simpler molecules, project 902, and shows a lot of promise for success with larger molecules. On March 27, 2003, the project began studying several new types or work units, including NTL9 (a protein with both beta and alpha structure) and 1PRB (a three-helix bundle). The project also increased the scope of its trpzip investigation to include a fourth variant trpzip4. On April 23, 2004, it published the first results from its Gromacs core. On August 20, 2004, the project began its P130x projects: these projects have work units much larger than normal, and require users to have hundreds of MB of RAM and be able to transfer 5 MB of data for each result, but the work units have 50% more value in stats. On October 12, 2004, the project released a new AMBER (Assisted Model Building with Energy Refinement) core which will allow it to do things that it can't with its existing Tinker and Gromacs cores. See the AMBER core FAQ. On January 15, 2005, the project published the results of its p53 tumor suppressor study, part of its cancer research project. These results are "the first peer-reviewed results from a distributed computing project related to cancer." On December 22, 2009, the project released a new core (Protomol core B4), which implements "the NML (Normal Mode Langevin) method" of protein folding simulation. If it is successful, this method could be up to one hundred times faster than previous cores.

On September 18, 2008, the project released an updated version of its PlayStation 3 client, now included in a Life With PlayStation feature on the PlayStation 3 console, which does more complex scientific calculations and which displays a more detailed globe, with weather and news reports for major cities plus a real-time map of cloud cover over the globe.

On February 18, 2009, the project passed the 5 PetaFLOPs mark. At that time traditional supercomputers were just passing the 1 PetaFLOPs mark. "The use of GPU's and Cell processors is has been key to this, and in fact the NVIDIA numbers alone have just passed 2 petaflops."

On January 17, 2010, the project announced it successfully achieved the first protein folding simulation on a millisecond timescale. This achievement is 1,000 times more difficult than the project's initial goal of simulation millisecond timescale simulation. The project published its 72d paper, Molecular Simulation of ab Initio Protein Folding for a Millisecond Folder NTL9(1-39), about the achievement.

On June 27, 2010, the project published a paper, "Atomic-Resolution Simulations Predict a Transition State for Vesicle Fusion Defined by Contact of a Few Lipid Tails," describing the project's "work on the mechanism for vesicle fusion," an important part of the process in which a virus infects a cell. Learning about this mechanism will help scientists better understand how the influenza virus enters cells.

On November 18, 2011, the project owners announced they have developed the new Copernicus framework to utilize supercomputers efficiently for protein folding simulations.

On February 27, 2020, the project began research into the COVID-19 coronavirus, which caused a worldwide pandemic. "2019-nCoV is a close cousin to SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV), and acts in a similar way."

Version 7.6.13 of the client is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OSX as of April 17, 2020. It allows volunteers to prioritize COVID-19 projects.

The project completed Phase I on May 21, 2003 (in this phase, almost 60,000 computers completed 1,400 years of computing to process over 9 million tasks).

"[Phase I] has ably demonstrated that with such massive computational abilities, researchers can utilize intensive approaches to identify drug candidates that succumb to resistance mutations and those that are more resilient to such mutations. An early lead developed during Phase I, TL-3, has been shown to be promising against the drug resistant strains that have arisen from the currently approved HIV Protease inhibitors. The characteristics of TL-3 have been born out by the FAAH computational work."

The project began Phase II on May 21, 2003. Note that for Phase II, the project transfered completely to The Scripps Research Institute (and became a completely non-profit project) and Entropia is no longer involved. You will need to reregister and download a new client to participate in Phase II. You can learn more about the project through articles it published on January 19 and January 26, 2004:
The Resistance Part I: From Petri Dishes to Population Dynamics
The Resistance Part II: Fighting HIV Resistance At Home and in the Laboratory.
For Phase II, the project has completed 4 experiments so far. Experiment 1a tested almost 1,900 compounds (of a possible 200,000) available from the National Institutes of Health against "a panel of 270 variations of the HIV protease structure" for a total of 513,000 experiments. Experiment 1a ended in April, 2006. Experiment 1b docked "all 200,000 compounds in the NIH library against the ‘wild-type’ HIV protease." That experiment ended in June, 2006. Experiment 2 completed the following tests: ChemBridge (500,000) vs. Wild Type HIV Protease (1); Top Hits from Experiment 1 vs. Mutant HIV Protease Panel (270); NCI Diversity Set (1,900) vs. Monomeric HIV Protease (20). It began in June, 2006, and end later in 2006. Experiment 3 tested Sidechain Motion in HIV Protease Cross Dockings. It ended in late 2006. Experiment 4 tested NCI Diversity Set vs. HIV PR Monomer. It ended in late 2006. Experiment 5 is testing BindingDB vs. HIV Protease, with and without Active Site Water Molecule. On October 21, 2011 the project owners announced the project had discovered two new protein fragments which are able to bind to two important sites on the HIV protease (the HIV virus) and may be able to prevent the virus, and "superbug" (drug-resistant) variations of the virus, from functioning normally. These protein fragments may be able to be developed into more effective HIV-fighting drugs.

On February 3, 2010, the project announced it found two compounds that make a completely new class of AIDS-fighting drugs possible: "two compounds that act on novel binding sites for an enzyme used by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the virus that causes AIDS. The discovery lays the foundation for the development of a new class of anti-HIV drugs to enhance existing therapies, treat drug-resistant strains of the disease, and slow the evolution of drug resistance in the virus."

The project began Experiment 33 on June 3, 2010 and completed it on December 1, 2010. This was the first experiment to target the HIV integrase system. The experiment screened over 360,000 protein fragments and some larger compounds "against our new dynamic models of the E92Q/N155H drug-resistant mutant of HIV-1 integrase," searching for compounds which can attach to brand new binding sites on this mutant.

The project began Experiment 34 on October 11, 2010. It is the second experiment which targets the HIV integrase system. The experiment is "screening the 'full National Cancer Institute's (NCI) library' of over 315,000 different compounds against our new dynamic models of the wild type, the G140S/Q148H drug-resistant mutant, and the E92Q/N155H drug-resistant mutant of HIV-1 integrase. We are trying to discover compounds that can bind to and inhibit the active site of the wild type and these two drug-resistant mutants."

The project began Experiment 35 on November 26, 2010. This project involves "involves screening the full NCI library of ~ 316,000 compounds against the active site of 8 different versions of HIV protease." It is similar to Experiment 32, "but a different library of compounds is being screened, and one new target has been added."

The project published Volume 10 of its newsletter on October 21, 2011. Dr. Alex Perryman of the project also created a YouTube video clip which gives a general summary of the project. Newsletter Volume 12 waspublished on November 18, 2013.

On November 19, 2005, the project joined the World Community Grid. The original software client is not supported as of that date.

The project completed Phase 1 (a screening process for over 3 million potential drug molecules) on August 26, 2009. Project participants contributed over 12,000 years of computing time to Phase 1. The results of Phase 1 benefit research not only for Dengue Fever but also for Hepatitis C, West Nile, Yellow Fever and other diseases caused by the Flaviviridea family of viruses. Phase 2 will perform more in-depth analysis on the best candidates found in Phase 1. The best candidates found in Phase 2 will be tested in labs.

The project began Phase 2 on March 23, 2010. This phase is reducing the number of "false positive" (i.e. dead end) results from phase 1. On November 10, 2014, the project announced it found a promising drug candidate that has the potential to prevent the virus from replicating. It may also disable similar flaviviruses like West Nile virus.

Results from FightMalaria@Home (as of January 6, 2015):

"We have made a results website for easy access to the data we generated using the FM@H BOINC server. The first 400 MMV compounds (MalariaBox) data is available here: http://chemware.ucd.ie/FiNDaH/Malaria.php.

"We're still doing the last repeat calculations for the remaining MMV19k and other datasets, the results of which we'll add to this website. We'll also add the TB data to this site, once we've cleaned it up and added orthogonal scoring data.
