In 2008, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for work done on a molecule called green fluorescent protein that was isolated from the bioluminescent chemistry of a jellyfish, and it's been equated to the invention of the microscope, in terms of the impact that it has had on cell biology and genetic engineering.
2008년에 노벨 화학상을 받은 사람의 연구 업적은 녹색형광단백질이란 물질로 해파리의 생물발광 화학 물질에서 분리한 것이죠. 이 물질이 세포 생물학과 유전 공학게 가져온 파급 효과는 현미경의 발명에 비견될 정도입니다.
