Action Quote by Francis Crick

Moreover the incorporation requires the same components needed for protein synthesis, and is inhibited by the same inhibitors. Thus the system is most unlikely…

Our cells engage in protein production, and many of those proteins are enzymes responsible for the chemistry of life.

— Randy Schekman

Using the power of protein engineering and evolution, we can convince enzymes to take what they do poorly and do it really well.

— Frances Arnold

Proteins are the machinery of living tissue that builds the structures and carries out the chemical reactions necessary for life.

— Michael Behe

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

— Michael Behe

“The cloning of human genes allowed scientists to manufacture proteins-and the synthesis of proteins opened the possibility of targeting the millions of biochemical reactions…

Finally one should add that in spite of the great complexity of protein synthesis and in spite of the considerable technical difficulties in synthesizing…

— Francis Crick

“A gene," Beadle wrote in 1945, "can be visualized as directing the final configuration of a protein molecule." This was the "action of the…

Protein engineering is a technology of molecular machines - of molecular machines that are part of replicators - and so it comes from an…

— K. Eric Drexler

One of the major lessons in all of biochemistry, cell biology and molecular medicine is that when proteins operate at the sub cellular level,…

— James Rothman

When I started engineering proteins I didn't know how hard it would be.

— Frances Arnold

Life is the mode of action of proteins.

— Friedrich Engels
