Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, one of the most essential molecules for life.

Amino acids can be linked to one another to form a chain called polypeptides. Long polypeptides are proteins.

The process that creates these proteins starting from the amino acids is called translation

What is role of amino acids in protein synthesis?

Proteins are chains of amino acids. The ribosomes in cells produce proteins by chaining amino acids according to the information in the m-RNA.


What would Hydrolysis of a protein produce?

Hydrolysis of a protein would break down the protein into its constituent amino acids. This process involves adding water to the protein molecule, causing the peptide bonds between amino acids to be cleaved, resulting in the release of individual amino acids.
