Summary Introduction

To explain: Whether the protein biochemistry has become superfluous or not

Introduction:

Proteins are molecules that are required for performing basic functions of every cell. Amino acid molecules serve as the essential fundamental unit of proteins. Every protein varies among them in terms of structure and function. This inimitability of proteins is because of diverse combination of amino acid sequences that folds uniquely to form a structure that will be specific for performing a particular function. Protein in no way imitates the other in case of structure or by function. The physical, chemical, and biological property of a protein can be described by protein biochemistry.
