It is immediately clear to even a person with no previous experience in molecular biology that the arrangement of atoms in a protein is not like any ordinary machine built or imagined by man, but rather the fact that it is not like anything common we have experienced and known.
It is immediately clear, even to someone with no previous experience in molecular biology, that the arrangement of atoms in a protein is not like any ordinary machine built or imagined by man, but rather unlike anything common that we have experienced and known. One superficial observation that is immediately known is the apparently irrational design, and the absence of any apparent regularity or aggregation in units.
A similar feeling arose about the strangeness and disorder of the arrangement of atoms in the protein researchers at the University of Cambridge, after identifying the first molecular structure of the first protein, myoglobin, in 1957, where one of them said: "Perhaps the striking phenomena in the molecule is its complexity and asymmetry, where the arrangement seems almost irregular, which is expected graceful, and is more complex than any theory about the structure of the protein was expected."2
Another member of the original Cambridge team admitted, ten years later, that the diversity and complexity of the three-dimensional atomic configuration of proteins "is so puzzling that it stops protein crystallography in an attempt to look for similar protein formations in its memory, but does not find an instance."3
