Interesting abstract in the Daily Scan at WSJ on Proteins... Referenced story is less informative: sciencedaily.com I had to use its search engine to pull up the story by sticking in the keyword PROTEIN. IE wouldn't load anything Whereas Netscape let me use the search engine for the site. The original news release is at: rpi.edu WSJ Abstract: Decoding the Proteins Language Amino acids that compose the body's protein molecules are synonymous with letters of the alphabet. Clusters of these acids are equivalent to words, and the end result is that individual proteins are like sentences in a chemical-based language. And like spoken languages, the language of proteins has its own grammatical rules. Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute are creating a database of these rules that should help more quickly decode the thousands of proteins that exist within humans, according to a release from the school.
