Cellular machinery Memes

Picture this: You're a ribosome, just doing your job translating mRNA into proteins. Then suddenly, you realize you've been tricked into making viral spike proteins instead of your usual cellular fare. The betrayal is palpable. You've unwittingly become the manufacturing plant for the very pathogen that's going to wreck the organism you're supposed to serve. Talk about an existential crisis at the molecular level. Your whole protein-making career, reduced to being a viral accomplice. No wonder you're staring into the void wondering where it all went wrong.
