living things use 'chemical tools' to build up their own structure or to destroy other structures. These tools are made up of proteins called functional proteins.

What is the smallest functional and structural unit of protein?

The smallest structural unit of a protein is the amino acid. The smallest functional unit of a protein is a little ambiguous, because some might consider the amino acid to be functional (after all, some can function as neurotransmitters). Or, some might consider the peptide (di, tri, etc) to be a functional unit. One could argue what exactly is the smallest functional unit of a protein.

How is protein synthesis related to gene expression?

Protein synthesis is the process where proteins are produced based on the information encoded in genes. Gene expression involves the process where the information in a gene is used to produce a functional product, such as a protein. Protein synthesis is a key component of gene expression, as it is the step where the genetic information in the gene is translated into a functional protein.


What does the word gene?

A gene is a functional unit on DNA. A gene codes for a protein. Most of the DNA in a genome does not code for protein. These non-coding sequences are thought to provide a sense of stability and integrity to the genome. If a DNA sequence is capable of coding for a functional protein, then it is a gene
