THE PROOF OF PUDDING IS IN THE EATING
Gregor Mendel, an Austrian monk demonstrated the inheritance patterns of the garden peas, PISUM sativum through breeding experimentations in his monastery's garden. There are twenty amino acids. Protein synthesis involves the unique and 'creative' ways of arranging these amino acids into chains known as polypeptides. Protein synthesis is recognized as a 'creative' process because the product it 'creates' has the ability to impart an unique sensory experience. We can distinguish plant and animal proteins by their distinctive characteristics in terms of TASTE, FLAVOR, and TEXTURE. Man uses his culinary skills to further improve the palatability of the proteins he consumes as food for his existence.
Please review my thoughts about proteins and genetics at my Home page of Bhavana Jagat.
