In fact, all our processed foods contain more
proteins
than we would be aware of.
Our diet consists, [in] some part, of animal proteins, and at the moment, most of us here get it from livestock, from fish, from game.
You'll get
proteins
in any kind of food anyway.
Just like genome mixes the study of all the genes, proteomics is the study of all the
proteins.
So we started talking, and he said, "I really need a better way to measure proteins."
Basically, what we do is we take a drop of blood out of a patient, and we sort out the
proteins
in the drop of blood according to how much they weigh, how slippery they are, and we arrange them in an image.
They're formed at the nano scale, and they use
proteins
that are coded by the genetic level that allow them to build these really exquisite structures.
Now, going back to the abalone shell, the abalone makes this shell by having these
proteins.
These
proteins
are very negatively charged.
The recipe to make those films is to take advantage of the fact that
proteins
are extremely smart at what they do.
And then you detach the protein and you get this film, as the
proteins
find each other as the water evaporates.
You can think of them as little
proteins
that are like solar cells.
In its membrane, or its boundary, it contains little
proteins
that indeed can convert light into electricity.
And each of these
proteins
acts just like that solar cell that I told you about.
The neuron uses its natural protein-making machinery to fabricate these little light-sensitive
proteins
and install them all over the cell, like putting solar panels on a roof.
There's one last elephant in the room: the
proteins
themselves, which come from algae, bacteria and funguses and all over the tree of life.
Their DNA starts to synthesize new proteins, which spill out and interact with adjacent nerves, and they start releasing their neurotransmitters, and those neurotransmitters spill out and activate adjacent glial cells, and so on and so forth, until what we have is a positive feedback loop.
The future holds the promise that new drugs will be developed that are not symptom-modifying drugs that simply mask the problem, as we have now, but that will be disease-modifying drugs that will actually go right to the root of the problem and attack those glial cells, or those pernicious
proteins
that the glial cells elaborate, that spill over and cause this central nervous system wind-up, or plasticity, that so is capable of distorting and amplifying the sensory experience that we call pain.
And try and try, we could not find DNA, but she did find evidence of
proteins.
But on the other side, if you look at the natural systems, we have
proteins
that have two million types, can fold in 10,000 nanoseconds, or DNA with three billion base pairs we can replicate in roughly an hour.
long
proteins.
We somehow got to
proteins
and DNA.
And we can aggregate them together and make literally thousands and thousands of really big nano-molecular molecules the same size of DNA and proteins, but there's no carbon in sight.
It's three proteins: ras, myc, p53.
But what it means is that we've failed to identify a greasy pocket in these proteins, into which we, like molecular locksmiths, can fashion an active, small, organic molecule or drug substance.
These are
proteins.
They're
proteins
that are controlling things like ion channel movement.
So if we zoom in to an even deeper level, all of those
proteins
are encoded by our genomes.
Genes send the instructions to make
proteins.
Proteins
are targets for drugs.
