Protein Synthesis 10.1 â 10.16. The genetic code is a code to build proteins, determines amino acid sequence (primary structure) Chromosome - one very long DNA molecule with supporting (histone) proteins. Gene - a section of the DNA molecule that codes for one polypeptide chain. A single chromosome contains thousands of genes. Locus - the particular location on a chromosome where a gene is located 8.11. Allele â different forms of a gene due to mutations 9.3.
