Continuing to work through this book, chapter 6, “Magnificent Molecular Micro-Machines” presents a great deal of the complexity of the cell, and its form and structure. I’m going to start this time with a quote: At first glance, it would seem impossible to generate such increidble diversity from such a small pool of amino acid…
