A Protein Primer: A Musical Introduction to Protein Structure.
M. A. Clark, Texas Wesleyan University http://www.whozoo.org/mac/Music/Primer/Primer_index.htm

En cada pieza musical, el tono se ajusta en función de la identidad de cada aminoácido (más agudo cuanto más polar). La estructura secundaria de la cadena polipeptídica se aplica eligiendo instrumentos diferentes para hélice alfa, hebra beta y giro. En algunas se emplean instrumentos diferentes para dominios funcionales distintos de la proteina.
