Proteins Quotes

Quotes spanning cell biology and everyday dietary choices.

These quotes approach proteins from two very different angles, one describing their role as building blocks within larger biological systems. A related look at structural thinking appears in the Robert Gant collection.

Proteins are constantly being degraded. Therefore, simultaneous production of proteins is required.

Quotes by Ada Yonath

Quotes by Ruby Wax

In many biological structures proteins are simply components of larger molecular machines.
