of a gene , which is encoded in the genetic code . in general, the genetic code specifies standard amino acids; but in certain organisms the genetic code can include selenocysteine and—in certain archaea — pyrrolysine . shortly after or even during synthesis, the residues in a protein are often chemically
modified by post-translational modification , which alters the physical and chemical properties, folding, stability, activity, and ultimately, the function of the proteins. some proteins have non-peptide groups attached, which can be called prosthetic groups or cofactors . proteins can also work together...
