two thousand and fourNobel Prize in ChemistryAwarded to Aaron Sichanova, an Israeli scientistAvram Hershko And American scientist Owen Ross, for their breakthrough discovery: how human cells control the process of certain proteins - the "waste disposal" process of human cells for useless proteins.The jury of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry used the "kiss of death" to describe their discovery: asHuman immune systemSome useless or pathogenic proteins must be "eliminated".To achieve "goals", cells will "send" specific molecules to "kiss" those target proteins, leaving "kiss" marks.Eventually, the labeled protein will be destroyed.Three scientists revealed the death form of human protein, which can help people explain the chemical working principle of the human immune system and provide the possibility for the radical cure of some cancers[2]。
