The rosetta application versions have been updated and we are currently beta testing the screen saver version developed by Jack Schonbrun. The updated versions include new methods for increasing diversity in our search strategy and a few minor bug fixes.

Backing off for Rosetta job

There is some sort of an issue with the current Rosetta job. It does not seem to want to dispatch any workunits. We are currently investigating this and hope to have an answer shortly.

The rosetta application was updated this morning. The new version includes a fix that Rom Walton (from the BOINC development team) added to the BOINC API for the "leave in memory" bug. See Technical News, http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/rah_t ... l_news.php , for more details.

Application upgraded to 5.01. New version includes fixes that will allow more aggressive searching, and a mechanism to abort big jobs that get restarted more than 5 times on a client.

Rosetta@home has been updated to version 5.68. This version allows us to carry out all-atom refinement for really large symmetric proteins where we simulate only subsystems, fixes a small bug in the RNA mode, and will allow a new sort of RNA simulation with lots of imposed base pairs.

A Japanese translation of Rosetta@home is now available. We'd like to thank Shinji Yamamoto for the translation.

Rosetta@home has been updated to version 5.70. This version includes some new features in the RNA and symmetry modes. We are also testing the possibility of running some workunits with the old app (5.68) and another set of new workunits with the new app (5.70) to help us continue long-term studies and test new features simultaneously.

Rosetta@home has been updated to version 5.76. This version includes updates for the RNA high resolution mode and for protein workunits that involve enforcing strand pairs and then closing accompanying chain breaks ('jumping').
