The Holy Grail of muscle biochemistry is to understand how muscle works. The operational components of a muscle can be likened to parts in an automobile. Automobiles have: an engine, an ignition, fuel delivery and brakes. Muscles have molecules called proteins, which can do all of these things. They produce a 'cool' system of movement; coordinated motion without having to resort to combustion. The biochemist's prime directive is to 'open the hood' of the muscle and look inside.

肌肉生物化学的圣杯是了解肌肉是如何工作的。肌肉的操作组件可以比作汽车中的部件。汽车有：发动机、点火装置、供油装置和刹车。肌肉中有一种叫做蛋白质的分子，它可以做所有这些事情。它们产生一个“冷”的运动系统;协调的运动而不必诉诸燃烧。生物化学家的首要指令是打开肌肉的“引擎盖”并查看内部。
