... The human body is built and run by 100,000 to 150,000 different kinds of proteins. The diversity of proteins compared to carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids, is monumental. This diversity comes from the large pool of different kinds of amino acids. There are 20 different amino acids found in al ...
