Chapter
The Potential of Soil Microbes and Protein Sequencing.
1:16:51 - 1:23:33 (06:41)
Through sequencing the genome of various species, we can find proteins in soil that can be turned into fungicides to kill fungal pathogens and bacteria. There's a limitless number of proteins that could exist due to the 20 amino acid variations.

Sequencing genomes of over a million species has led to the discovery of proteins found in soil that could be used to create fungicides, as well as the creation of 3D structures of 200 million proteins by Google's Alpha Fold project.
