Proteins are life’s working horses and nature’s robots. They participate in every life process. They form supporting structures of cell, fibre, tissue, and organs; they are catalysts, speed up various life critical chemical reactions; they transfer signals so that we can see, hear, and smell; they protect us against intruders such as bacteria and virus; they regulate life cycles to keep that everything is in order; etc., just mention only a few of their functions.
