Proteins are constantly being degraded. Therefore, simultaneous production of proteins is required. -- Ada Yonath
Proteins are the machinery of living tissue that builds the structures and carries out the chemical reactions necessary for life. -- Michael Behe
I don't combine proteins and carbohydrates. -- Ruby Wax
In many biological structures proteins are simply components of larger molecular machines. -- Michael Behe
As can be seen even by this limited number of examples proteins carry out amazingly diverse functions. -- Michael Behe
Our cells engage in protein production, and many of those proteins are enzymes responsible for the chemistry of life. -- Randy Schekman
Agriculture as we know it needs to disappear. We can design better and healthier proteins than we get from nature. -- Craig Venter
The basic structure of proteins is quite simple: they are formed by hooking together in a chain discrete subunits called amino acids. -- Michael Behe
I'm eating a lot of organic proteins and vegetables! Maintaining a healthy, balanced diet is my No. 1 priority because I'm nursing my daughter. -- Lily Aldridge
A virus is not just DNA; a virus is also packaged up, covered over with a series of proteins in a nice, elegant, well-compacted form. -- Francis Collins
I basically eat a lot of proteins, and I've been eating smaller portions of food. I try to eat all locally raised and organic produce. -- Norman Reedus
By then, I was making the slow transition from classical biochemistry to molecular biology and becoming increasingly preoccupied with how genes act and how proteins are made. -- Paul Berg
I have a chef who makes sure that I'm getting the right amounts of carbs, proteins and fats throughout the day to keep me at my max performance level. -- Barry Bonds
I eat healthy and don't go by a diet chart. The breakfast is usually heavy, complemented with short frequent meals. My dinner is high on proteins and low on carbohydrates. -- Vijender Singh
A boxer's diet should be low in fat and high in proteins and sugar. Therefore you should eat plenty of lean meat, milk, leafy vegetables, and fresh fruit and ice cream for sugar. -- Gene Tunney
Science is a part of culture. Indeed, it is the only truly global culture because protons and proteins are the same all over the world, and it's the one culture we can all share. -- Martin Rees
Science is the one culture that's truly global - protons, proteins and Pythagoras's Theorem are the same from China to Peru. It should transcend all barriers of nationality. It should straddle all faiths, too. -- Martin Rees
One of the major lessons in all of biochemistry, cell biology and molecular medicine is that when proteins operate at the sub cellular level, they behave in a certain way as if they're mechanical machinery. -- James Rothman
Owing to the difficulty of dealing with substances of high molecular weight we are still a long way from having determined the chemical characteristics and the constitution of proteins, which are regarded as the principal con-stituents of living organisms. -- Karl Landsteiner
Space and time, not proteins and neurons, hold the answer to the problem of consciousness. When we consider the nerve impulses entering the brain, we realize that they are not woven together automatically, any more than the information is inside a computer. -- Robert Lanza
It starts with your diet and then to your exercise... you have to make the right decisions as a consumer and learn about carbs and proteins as well as watching your portion control, and from there you have to stay active as much as possible. -- Apolo Ohno
All these bacteria that coat our skin and live in our intestines, they fend off bad bacteria. They protect us. And you can't even digest your food without the bacteria that are in your gut. They have enzymes and proteins that allow you to metabolize foods you eat. -- Bonnie Bassler
Quinoa is great for lazy day cooking because it's packed with complete proteins, but it cooks in only 20 minutes. And, you can flavor it any way you wish! I make mine with onions, lots of ground ginger, turmeric and coriander, and then whatever dried fruit and nuts I have around. -- Aarti Sequeira
A meringue is really nothing but a foam. And what is a foam after all, but a big collection of bubbles? And what's a bubble? It's basically a very flimsy little latticework of proteins draped with water. We add sugar to this structure, which strengthens it. But things can, and do, go wrong. -- Alton Brown
As I get older and maybe a little bit wiser, you realize how much stuff affects your body and what it can do. Cutting out carbs and sweets and trying to eat just proteins and fruits and stuff like that, more natural stuff, is what I have found has had the biggest impact on me. -- Jay Cutler
Genes are effectively one-dimensional. If you write down the sequence of A, C, G and T, that's kind of what you need to know about that gene. But proteins are three-dimensional. They have to be because we are three-dimensional, and we're made of those proteins. Otherwise we'd all sort of be linear, unimaginably weird creatures. -- Francis Collins
I became aware of the very complex internal organization in a cell from the basic science classes, and it made me think about how all that could work. It seemed like a great mystery, especially how organelles in the cell can be arranged in three dimensions, and how thousands of proteins could find their way to the right location in the cells. -- James Rothman
One bacterium has 2,000 to 6,000 proteins. -- Paul A. Offit
Life is the mode of action of proteins. -- Friedrich Engels
Nuclear DNA encodes all the proteins and enzymes that make you you, basically. -- Hendrik Poinar
And of course, identifying all human genes and proteins will have great medical significance. -- Daniel Nathans
I think proteins are really good for your brain. And your brain is where comedy comes from. -- Carrie Brownstein
Conclusion: Big helix in several chains, phosphates on outside, phosphate-phosphate inter-helical bonds disrupted by water. Phosphate links available to proteins. -- Rosalind Franklin
Drama is a complete meal, vitamins, proteins, carbohydrates. It's a slow burn thing. It's got an arc. Comedy is more like coke. -- Eddie Izzard
I wanted to become a better Snoop Dogg, full of water, proteins and stuff to keep me alive . . . lollipops and Big Macs. -- Snoop Dogg
The skin is forming because of proteins, just like if you cook milk or anything else that's got a coagulant protein in it. -- Alton Brown
Civilization means food and literature all round. Beefsteaks and fiction magazines for all. First-class proteins for the body, fourth-class love-stories for the spirit. -- Aldous Huxley
I would suggest that gluten tends to be tied to carbs. And I try to balance my carbs and my proteins and my fats. -- Ronald M. Shaich
The history of modern nutritionism has been a history of macronutrients at war: protein against carbs; carbs against proteins, and then fats; fats against carbs. -- Michael Pollan
Each form of Alzheimer's disease should perturb different brain networks and so influence the concentration of different proteins that can be measured in the blood. -- Leroy Hood
Man's health and well-being depends upon, among many things, the proper functioning of the myriad proteins that participate in the intricate synergisms of living systems. -- Stanford Moore
Every living being is also a fossil. Within it, all the way down to the microscopic structure of its proteins, it bears the traces if not the stigmata of its ancestry. -- Jacques Monod
It turns out that moving our muscles produces proteins that travel through the bloodstream and into the brain, where they play pivotal roles in the mechanisms of our highest thought processes. -- John Ratey
DNA is a code of four letters; proteins are made up of amino acids which come in 20 forms. So the ribosome is a very clever machine that reads one language and operates in another. -- Ada Yonath
Brain cells are normally not sensitive to light. So by introducing light-sensitive proteins into specific types of neurons, we can now selectively control that specific type of neuron by shining light in the brain. -- Feng Zhang
