There is NO such thing as "folding" when you talk about the D²OL project!

Target, candidate, conformer, docking, etc. are all valid... but there is no "folding". ;) Conforming is about as close as it gets folks. :p:

Are you going to be the one to fit "Way to Conform !" on the little sign Jeff ? :p:

I guess if you read the "What's What" of D²OL, docking is probably the term to actually use... you're right. ;)

Not trying to be a PIA myself but it's just not the right use of the word in this project. :shrug:

One question... Why?

Jeff

Just take a lok at the FAQ that I posted in the first message of this thread. D2OL is not folding. It's docking and conforming. Folding, as in "folding genes", describes perfectly the DF and F@H projects... just not this one. ;)

Shouldn't folding be called unfolding?
I know what the sign should say "Way to fight the BIO-nasties"

"What are you using for D2OL?"
"Way to crunch!"
"Let's get CONFORMING!!!"
"Conform Me!"
"D2OL or death!!!"
etc.

:lol: ;)

Nice font... what is that?

BTW, why have anything after D2OL? :confused: I'd just keep it short and simple. :shrug:
