类蛋白质-热蛋白质-是通过加热氨基酸到熔点并引发聚合产生聚合链而产生的。类蛋白在水溶液中溶胀成中空微球。类蛋白微球产生内源性爆发的电位尖峰，并改变其电活动的模式，以响应照明。微球可以通过孔和管相互连接，并形成具有可编程生长的网络。我们推测如何合奏的蛋白质微球可以开发成非传统的计算设备。
Proteinoids - thermal proteins - are produced by heating amino acids to their melting point and initiation of polymerisation to produce polymeric chains. Proteinoids swell in aqueous solution into hollow microspheres. The proteinoid microspheres produce endogenous burst of electrical potential spikes and change patterns of their electrical activity in response to illumination. The microspheres can interconnect by pores and tubes and form networks with a programmable growth. We speculate on how ensembles of the proteinoid microspheres can be developed into unconventional computing devices.
