    It is hard to believe that they could know ANYTHING that specific about something so long ago. And viruses "recognize" a number of proteins in humans today. The actual proteins VARY. THAT is why we have tissue typing and immune problems, etc.... The protein formation is controlled at the lowest level by the DNA of the person. When people say you should take protein, they REALLY mean a substance that is probably FOREIGN to your body that your digestive system breaks down into amino acids which then are used create a protein for YOU whether it is bone, skin, muscle, blood cells, etc... THAT is why a kidney may word in one person and be destroyed in another. The immune system looks for foreign proteins.

    So without a good sample, do they even know if that protein was common then, or extinct now?
