DNA and protein capsids make up a virus particle. The DNA (or RNA) carries the genetic material of the virus, while the protein capsid provides protection and helps the virus to infect host cells.
A set of instructions for making a particular protein is called a gene. Genes are made up of DNA sequences that encode the specific sequence of amino acids that make up a protein. These instructions are transcribed from DNA to mRNA and then translated into a protein by ribosomes.
A DNA molecule is composed of two strands of nucleotides.
The nucleus is where DNA which codes for proteins is stored. The DNA is transcribed to make mRNA in the nucleus. The mRNA then leaves the nucleus where it is translated on the ribosomes into a series of amino acids which make up a protein. So the role of the nucleus is to tell the cell which proteins to make.
Capsomeres are the individual proteins that make the capsid - the protective protein coat around a virus's nucleic acid. Some capsomeres can be composed of a single protein or mosaic. Capsomeres/Capsids come in a variety of shapes (helical, polyhedral, enveloped, complex)
The sequences of amino acids in a protein molecule are specified by the genetic code present in an organism's DNA. The information from DNA is transcribed into RNA, which is then translated by ribosomes into the specific sequence of amino acids that make up the protein. Each set of three nucleotides in the RNA sequence, called a codon, corresponds to a specific amino acid.
That depends. DNA undergoing replication is assisted by varieties of proteins to make a new strand. Also, in order for DNA to be coiled into chromosomes, the DNA must be wrapped around the protein histone. But in the actual structure of DNA, no, there are no proteins.

DNA and Protein
Chromatin is the general term that describes uncondensed DNA plus the protein associated with DNA. Chromatin is the complex of DNA and proteins that make up chromosomes in the cell nucleus.

It didn't. The DNA ended up in the pellet-like bacteria that was at the bottom of the centrifuge. The protein capsids ended up in the supernatant because they weren't injected into the bacteria cells. The supernatant was separated from the bacteria cells because the bacteria was heavier and fell to the bottom.
The messenger RNA (mRNA) strand contains the codes for the amino acids that make up a protein. During protein synthesis, the mRNA strand is used by ribosomes to read the genetic information and assemble the corresponding amino acids.
A gene is a DNA protein complex. These are grouped together in chromatin and make up the nucleus of the cell.
Four basic molecules are Carbohydrates, Lipids, Protein, and DNA/RNA
Coiled up DNA, combined with protein histone, forms chromosomes.
