Most of the molecules produced from DNA may not even be proteins, but another chemical known as RNA.

Duh. I don't think any proteins are produced from DNA except as mediated through RNA.

You would be correct.

The only function of DNA is to make useful RNA’s. Many of the most useful RNA’s are mRNA’s that code for proteins.
