yes
Polypeptides are chains of amino acids.
No, Polypeptides are chains of amino acids and Proteins
Aminopeptidase & carboxypeptidase
Amino acids are assembled in ribosomes. Polypeptides are the out products.
peptones and peptides together form long chains in the form of polypeptides.
No. Peptides are strings of amino acids. These proteins (peptides) are folded and coiled into polypeptides.
Polypeptides are generally soluble in water due to their polar and hydrophilic nature. However, some polypeptides with long hydrophobic regions may be insoluble in water. Additionally, the solubility of polypeptides can be influenced by factors such as pH, temperature, and the presence of salts or other solutes.
Polypeptides are made in the ribosomes of the cell. Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis by translating the information from messenger RNA (mRNA) into amino acid sequences, which eventually form polypeptides.
Amino acids are the building blocks of polypeptides. Polypeptides are mini-proteins.
No, the reverse is true: polypeptides are polymers, made of amino acids (as monomers, i.e. subunits)
Polypeptides
Ninhydrin does react with polypeptides, specifically with the amino group of amino acids present in the polypeptide chain. This reaction leads to the formation of a colored compound that can be used for detection and analysis of amino acids and polypeptides.
