Unogona kurondedzera kutaura kweGene here?
Majini anowanzoratidza kushanda kwawo kupfurikidza nokubudiswa kwemapuroteni, mamorekuru anotarisira mabasa mazhinjisa ari musero. Mapuroteni anoumbwa neketani imwe chete kana kuti dzakawanda dzepolypeptide, imwe neimwe iine amino acid. Kutevedzana kweDNA kwegene kunoshandiswa kugadzira kutevedzana kwakati kweamino acid. Nzira iyi inotanga nokugadzirwa kwemolekyumu yeRNA ine nhevedzano inoenderana neDNA yegene, muitiro unonzi kunyorwa.  Molekyuli iyi yeRNA inotumira mashoko inozoshanda kuti ibudise amino acid inoenderana nayo pachishandiswa nzira inonzi kushandura. Boka rimwe nerimwe rema nucleotide matatu ari munhevedzano, rinonzi codon, rinowirirana nerimwe ramakumi maviri emaamino acid anobvira mupuroteni kana kuti muraidzo wokugumisa nhevedzano yamaamino acid; kuwirirana uku kunonzi kodhi yegene. Kuyerera kwemashoko hakutungamiri: mashoko anotamisirwa kubva munhevedzano ye nucleotide kupinda munhevedzano yeamino acid yemapuroteni, asi haambotamisirwi kubva pamapuroteni kudzokera munhevedzano yeDNA - chiitiko icho Francis Crick akadana kuti dzidziso huru yebiology yemamolekyuru.  Kurongeka kwakasarudzika kwemaamino acids kunoguma nechimiro chakasarudzika chetatu cheiyo protein, uye zvimiro zvematatu zveprotein zvine hukama nemabasa avo. Mamwe acho akareruka, akaita semasero anogadzirwa nepuroteni inonzi collagen. Mapuroteni anokwanisa kusunga mamwe mapuroteni nemamwe mamolekyu ari nyore, dzimwe nguva achiita semakemikari achiita kuti makemikari aite zvakanaka mumamolekyu akabatanidzwa (pasina kuchinja chimiro cheprotein yacho pachayo). Maumbirwo emapuroteni anoshanduka-chinja; puroteni inonzi hemoglobin inochinja-chinja zvishoma sezvo ichiita kuti okisijeni iwane, itakurwe, uye isunungurwe muropa remhuka dzinoyamwisa.
