the molecules that keep us alive

Healthy molecules help build a healthy body. In order for our cells to function properly, all of their molecules need to be performing their individual jobs. Problems occur, for instance, when a key vitamin is missing from our diet or a protein is compromised by a faulty gene. Atomic structures have revealed how healthy molecules function and how errors in this function can cause disease.
