Each gene encodes the amino acid sequence of a single protein.

每个基因编码单个蛋白质的氨基酸序列。

The genes in your genome specify the amino acid sequences of your proteins.

基因组中的基因指定了蛋白质的氨基酸序列。

Once we've designed the new protein, we encode its amino acid sequence in a synthetic gene.

一旦我们设计出新的蛋白质，我们就将其氨基酸序列编码到一个合成基因中。

The translation between these amino acid sequences and the structures and functions of proteins is known as the protein folding problem.

这些氨基酸序列与蛋白质结构和功能之间的翻译称为蛋白质折叠问题。

Because of this complexity, humans have only been able to harness the power of proteins by making very small changes to the amino acid sequences of the proteins we've found in nature.

由于这种复杂性，人类只能通过对我们在自然界中发现的蛋白质的氨基酸序列进行非常小的改变来利用蛋白质的力量。
