Protein dynamics

Protein dynamics is a science that studies how proteins in our bodies work. Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids and are essential for our bodies to function properly. They help with almost everything like digestion, movement, and even our thoughts! In order to understand how proteins work, scientists look at how they move and change over time. They do this by observing how proteins interact with each other and other molecules in the body. By studying protein movements, scientists can learn more about how proteins help us stay healthy.
