Today’s Video of the Day from the American Chemical Society describes how researchers are using music to represent the structure of proteins.

The researchers transferred the unique vibrations of each amino acid into sound frequencies that humans can hear.

According to the experts, the method could be useful for helping to explain protein structure to broad audiences.
