===Human Proteome Folding – Phase 2===
{{Main|Human Proteome Folding Project}}

'''Human Proteome Folding - Phase 2 (HPF2)''' (launched June 23, 2006<ref name="Active Research" />) was the third project to run on World Community Grid, and completed in 2013. This project, following on from HPF1, focused on human-secreted [[proteins]], with special focus on [[Biomarker (medicine)|biomarkers]] and the proteins on the surface of cells as well as [[Plasmodium]], the organism that causes malaria. HPF2 generates higher-resolution protein models than HPF1. Though these higher-resolution models are more useful, they also require more processing power to generate.<ref>{{cite web

In a July 2012 status report, the project scientists reported that the results generated by the WCG calculations are being used by Dr. Markus Landthaler of the Max Delbruch Center for Molecular Medicine (MDC) in Berlin. The HPF2 results helped Dr. Markus Landthaler and his collaborators in writing up a new paper on "The mRNA-Bound Proteome and Its Global Occupancy Profile on Protein-Coding Transcripts"<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Baltz AG, Munschauer M, Schwanhäusser B, Vasile A, Murakawa Y, Schueler M, Youngs N, Penfold-Brown D, Drew K, Milek M, Wyler E, Bonneau R, Selbach M, Dieterich C, Landthaler M | display-authors = 6 | title = The mRNA-bound proteome and its global occupancy profile on protein-coding transcripts | journal = Molecular Cell | volume = 46 | issue = 5 | pages = 674–90 | date = June 2012 | pmid = 22681889 | doi = 10.1016/j.molcel.2012.05.021 | doi-access = free }}</ref>
