Scientists can find the right location to stop the growth of the virus. Also gave the researchers an opportunity to determine an effective treatment for patients with HIV / AIDS.

Application of three-dimensional game that they use is Foldit. Researchers at the University of Washington developed this application in 2008. The workings of this application is by turning the amino acid molecules to create three-dimensional protein structure. They solve complex scientific challenges into computer games.
