There are some little question marks inside me.
is not very new, but this is really amazing.
someone composed the coronavirus into a song. To be exact, the song is nearly two hours long enough for people to hear that the sleeping song comes from the spike protein on the surface of the 2019-nCoV virus, the protein that the virus uses to invade human cells.
(the total length of audio is about 1 hour and 50 minutes, but Wechat audio can only play for 1 hour at most, so this is an excerpt, and no one will hear the last one anyway.)
this "coronavirus song" is from Markus Buehler, an engineering professor at MIT and a composer keen on "data sound". The sounds transformed by the algorithm contain information such as the amino acid sequence of the protein, the vibration of the whole protein molecule, and the folding of the amino acid chain. As for the timbre of the instrument, it is the author's choice.
(borrow David S. Goodsell's coronavirus watercolor painting, in which the pink-purple outer circle of the virus is the spike protein (S protein))
converting proteins into music is not just for fun. The researchers believe that audio can be used as a way to analyze protein characteristics and create new proteins. Last year, the author and several other researchers also published a paper on the processing algorithm of "protein musicalization", which was posted on ACS nano. To be fair, compared with the example audio in the paper at that time, this time the spike protein music is really a lot more pleasant to the ear.
