There are about 500 amino acids, which are informally known as the building blocks of protein. However, only 20 of those are encoded by DNA to make proteins.

What are the building blocks for proteins?

Protein is the polymer collection of many amino acids, made from carboxylate (COOH) and amine (NH2) groups attached at either end, in the excess of 40 molecules but usually 1000 or more. They could also be called polypeptides, where a peptide is the monomer link CO-NH formed when two amino acids join together in a condensation polymeric reaction in which a water (H2O) molecule is eliminated. You should also note that protein can be broken down back into its buildings block, the amino acids, using 6 moldm-3 HCl and water.
