Foldit ndi masewera apakanema apakanema okhudza kupindika kwa mapuloteni. Ndi gawo la kafukufuku woyeserera wopangidwa ndi University of Washington, Center for Game Science, mogwirizana ndi UW department of Biochemistry. Cholinga cha Foldit ndikupinda mapuloteni osankhidwa mwangwiro momwe angathere, pogwiritsa ntchito zida zomwe zaperekedwa pamasewera. Mayankho apamwamba kwambiri amawunikidwa ndi ofufuza, omwe amawona ngati pali dongosolo lachilengedwe (dziko lakwawo) lomwe lingagwiritsidwe ntchito pamapuloteni ofunikira mdziko lenileni. Asayansi atha kugwiritsa ntchito njirazi pofuna kuthana ndi kuthetsa matenda ndikupanga zatsopano zamoyo. Pepala la 2010 m'magazini ya sayansi ya Nature inanena kuti osewera a Foldit 57,000 adapereka zotsatira zothandiza zomwe zimafanana kapena kupambana kwambiri ndi mayankho a algorithmically computed.
