No, protein is completely irrelevant to sugar. I think what you mean is Carbohydrates. A carb is basically a complex sugar, and when it is ingested your body breaks it down into simple sugars.

No: Monosaccharides are chains of sugar-monomers - Glucose in this case - that form both Cellulose and [in an alternate Chemical configuration] Glycogen.

Proteins are made from {poly-peptide} chains of amino - acids.

No, but they provide energy if carbohydrates are not available in body or in food.

The liver can convert them to sugar, but in a healthy diet they are used elsewhere.

No. Proteins do not make sugars and sugars do not make proteins. They are completely different classes of compounds.

Protiens are complex folded amino acid chains. Sugar in its pure form does not posess any amine groups, nor any amino acids. Sugars belong to a class of molecules called carbohydrates. These are chains of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen not possessing any amino or nitrogen groups. No. Protiens are not found in sugar.
