Functions Of Protein In The Body - How The Body Uses Proteins

Types of Proteins and their function in the human body
Proteins are made up of hundreds or thousands of smaller units called amino acids, which are attached to one another in long chains. Proteins are put together at ribosomes from a blueprint stored in DNA and more specifically from sections of the DNA called genes. There are 20 different types of amino acids that can be combined to make a protein. The order of amino acids determines each protein’s unique shape and its specific function or job.

Let’s take a look at 5 important functions of proteins
