bbover3 has pointed out that Dr. Richard Bonneau posted a status update on 21 Feb 2008 for Human Proteome Folding - Phase II (HPF2) on his website ( http://homepages.nyu.edu/~rb133/wcg/rbonneau_posts.html ) : http://homepages.nyu.edu/~rb133/wcg/thread_2008_02_21.html

We have done -
plasmodium falciparum -- causes most deadly form of malaria
B. anthracis -- causative agent of anthrax
Gram-negative pathogens -- responsible for many food-borne illnesses and sexually transmitted diseases
Bacillus_subtilis -- model organism for studying evolution and other pathogenic organisms
GOS -- new antibiotics, new industrial enzymes, new organisms that bind toxic metals **

We are currently folding -
plasmodium vivax -- recently sequenced genome which causes malaria, usually not deadly but truly awful disease

We will fold -
Phytoplankton -- responsible for a large portion of the oxygen in our atmosphere and interesting for its impacts on climate change
rice -- major food source for a large portion of the worlds population
arabidopsis -- model organism for studying plants
Trypanosoma cruzi -- causes Chagas disease in Central and South America

** GOS is the Sorceror II Global Ocean Sampling dataset - proteins identified from oceanic genomes. This 13 March 2007 article describes the GOS dataset : http://www.moore.org/pa-newsitem.aspx?id=2050 'More than Six Million New Genes, Thousands of New Protein Families, and Incredible Degree of Microbial Diversity Discovered from First Phase of Sorcerer II Global Ocean Sampling Expedition'


Dr. Richard Bonneau also announces a new paper "A Predictive Model for Transcriptional Control of Physiology in a Free Living Cell" (Bonneau et al. 2007) published on 28 Dec 2007 in Cell at http://www.cell.com/content/article/abstract?uid=PIIS009286740701416X

This paper is about modeling the functional networks in Halobacterium salinarum NRC-1. It uses the structural information about proteins from the Human Proteome Folding project to help construct the model. This is an early example of what we are trying to accomplish in HPF. Knowing the structure (shape) that proteins fold into lets us guess which proteins they interact with and construct a protein network that maps out a biological process.
