Abstract
We have translated genome-encoded protein sequence into musical notes and created a polyphonic harmony taking in account its tertiary structure. We did not use a diatonic musical scale to obtain a pleasant sound, focusing instead on the spatial relationship between aminoacids closely placed in the 3-dimensional protein folding. In this way, the result is a musical translation of the real morphology of the protein, that opens the challenge to bring musical harmony rules into the proteomic research field.
