Article Body:
Protein is forced to be tedious. For many hours our eyes struggle to understand the meaning of messages hidden in the A, G, C, and T DNA sequences that are ultimately made into proteins.
Through the amalgam of molecular biology and classical music no more, it became possible to "listen" to it as well as to look at them. Changes in code and code are used for each amino acid and rhythm is based on protein order. This work, pioneered by UCLA's Takahashi Rie, is claimed to be far more melodic than her predecessor, and is not very annoying.
As a scientist, I would like to say that this is one step towards the right direction of science to make it more accessible to average general people. But my musicians will frown at the apparent "non-musicality" of the whole approach.
Yes, it sounds like a piece of jazz, perhaps jazz is not just my tea. But how randomly can you call a series of three note chords scattered around the treble clef sign Come on?
Clearly, the CD should be made from the composition of these proteins. Fellow scientists immediately rush to local music shops to buy it, but count me. We have high standards.
