Flash Cash Ellyn says DNA is the Flash but Proteins are the Cash of the Biotech Industry Important and interesting because: So many different proteins with so many functions. Over 2000 different proteins/cell (humans make over 40K) So complex and sensitive to changes-cause big change Often the product of a biotech company!
