Brain protein research
Brain protein research. Computer artwork of a brain and coloured dots from a protein microarray. Protein microarrays can be used to follow protein interactions. Each dot is a protein sample, with a colour for each protein being studied. The samples are studied on a suitable substrate that minimizes any interference with the protein biochemistry. In the brain, proteins called neurotransmitters and receptors mediate the electrical activity of basic nervous function and human thoughts. Proteins in general are the major structural component of all life. The study of proteins, and their interaction in living organisms, is called proteomics

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the fascinating world of brain protein research. In this computer artwork, a vibrant brain is depicted alongside an array of colored dots representing proteins on a microarray. These protein microarrays serve as invaluable tools for studying protein interactions within living organisms. Each dot in this intricate design represents a unique protein sample, with distinct colors assigned to each individual protein under investigation. The substrate on which these samples are studied ensures minimal interference with the delicate biochemistry of the proteins. Proteins play an essential role in all forms of life and are particularly crucial in the central nervous system (CNS). Within our brains, neurotransmitters and receptors rely on proteins to mediate electrical activity, governing basic nervous function and even human thoughts. The study of proteins and their interactions within living organisms is known as proteomics—a field that holds immense potential for advancing our understanding of biology and unlocking new avenues for scientific exploration. This awe-inspiring illustration captures the essence of scientific discovery at its finest—merging artistry with cutting-edge research techniques. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge about ourselves and the intricate workings of life itself.
