STAT Plus: Making music from proteins to better understand biology
Imagine listening to insulin, hemoglobin, or amyloid, the notorious Alzheimer’s protein. What do they sound like?
First, you have to hear their amino acids. These building blocks of proteins move, vibrating on the molecular level. Researchers have tuned in to them to create the amino acid musical scale — and then make “music” in order to investigate disease.
