Detailed explanation-1: -Proteins can serve all of the mentioned functions, except store hereditary information.
Detailed explanation-2: -One of them is gene insulation, an activity exerted by dedicated DNA elements (called insulators) and proteins (insulator-binding-proteins, or IBPs) to block the spreading of regulatory element action and thus insulate, or shield, gene promoters from unwanted regulation.
Detailed explanation-3: -The major functions of proteins are providing structure, regulating body processes, transporting materials, balancing fluids, helping with immunity, and providing energy.
Detailed explanation-4: -Proteins have multiple functions, including: acting as enzymes and hormones, maintaining proper fluid and acid-base balance, providing nutrient transport, making antibodies, enabling wound healing and tissue regeneration, and providing energy when carbohydrate and fat intake is inadequate.
