Do-re-mi has just been taken to a new level.

A cross between Science and Music was just discovered and you’ll be pretty surprised with what they’ve found out.

According to a news report from National Geographic, scientists have discovered there was more to proteins than just building up muscular tissues. Mary Anne Clark, a biologist at Texas Wesleyan University is one of the ground-breaking scientists who came across with the idea that proteins can be turned into music.

There are 20 different amino acids and each strand of protein is known to contain thousands of them. Clark and her colleagues assign a note for each type of amino acid. As a result, each sequence is a new protein song.

They use this innovation in determining the similarities and differences between different protein samples. By listening to the songs, scientists and as well as students can find a distinction from a variety of species. This technique is less confounding and less stressing than scrutinizing an ordinary protein sequence.

“If you play [the protein song for a certain sequence] you get that sense of the pattern much more strongly,” Clark said. “That’s my feeling at least. You hear stuff you can’t see,”

Now that’s truly something Scientians would appreciate. Imagine incorporating melody into something we thought would be boring and predictable. With this finding, Science won’t be the same again.
