Hello everyone,
I have a pretty good idea of the materials I will use to build the structure (gum paste, food coloring, wire, and glitter are the most likely candidates) but I’m having a harder time deciding the protein I want to model.
Right now the choices are between:
1. Ranasmurfin “a blue protein from the foam nests of a tropical frog”. The name and color of the protein remind me of one of the TV show “The Smurfs” and I was thinking of doing something along the lines of Brainy Smurf discovering the protein (depicted in secondary structure).
2. Epstein-Barr Virus. “Alice in Wonderland Syndrome” can present as an initial symptom of this virus. In this case, I would like to present the protein structure (secondary structure) as one of the many oddities Alice stumbles upon in Wonderland (perhaps the structure could be in the garden with the talking flowers).
I would really appreciate any ideas, suggestions, or votes for which protein I should do. Thank you.
~Cheers
