They are composed of long chains of amino acids.
The building blocks of protein are amino acids. Amino acids are organic molecules made up an alpha (center) carbon atom which is linked to an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom and a variable component known as a side chain.
Amino acids are joined to each other by peptide bonds to form either a short chain called an oligopeptide or a long chain called a polypeptide. These chains are what forms the protein.
DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell. Depending on the type of cell, different parts of the DNA are used (example; if it's an eye cell, the DNA will use the segment that is dedicated to the functions of the eye). When a protein is needed, the DNA will split and in a process called transcription, the DNA messages are copied onto mRNA. The mRNA then leaves the nucleus through nuclear pores, and then travels through the cytoplasm to locate ribosomes which will produce the proteins needed to express whatever trait it codes for.
The answer is ‘Life insurance could be denied’. Publishing DNA results could make public genetic predisposition to diseases such as Huntington's disease, cystic fibrosis, and disorders such as Alzheimer's that are caused by environmental factors influence on the respective genetic mutations. This would cause the life and health insurers to evade such individuals since they are considered a liability. This would deny the individuals the right to health insurance.
