Think of it this way: Amino acid ---- Amino acid
That's one bond for two monomers
Amino acid ---- Amino acid ---- Amino acid
That's two bonds for three monomers
Then you can say there are 150 bonds for 151 monomers.

A long chain of many amino acids is called a?
Polypeptides are chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
Why is it possible to have thousands of different types of proteins with only 20 amino acids?
There are many different combinations of amino acids and proteins and peptide bonds.
Disulfide bonds may be part of?
Disulfide bonds between cysteine amino acids in a peptide chain are critically in stabilizing preferred secondary and tertiary structures. Many enzyme activities rely on specific shapes that are stabilized by these disulfide bonds.
What joining proteins are made into long chains called polypeptides?
Amino acids by (mostly linear) peptidic bonding
How many water molecules are formed when four amino acids join together?
One molecule of water is released from the formation of one peptide bond. One end of an amino acid (C-terminus) donates an OH group, and the other end of the other amino acid (N-terminus) donates a hydrogen.
How many peptide bonds would it take to make a protein of 20 amino acids?
It would take 19 peptide bonds to make a protein of 20 amino acids.
Do peptide bond link amino acids?
Amino acids do not have hydrogen bonds. They only have an alpha corbon atom connected to 4 groups namely: Hydrogen A variable R group An amide group A carboxyl group
What is the difference between peptide and peptide bond?
a protein is many amino acids bonded together, amino acids are the basic building blocks of proteins, and a peptide bond is the bond that connects amino acids together
A long chain of many amino acids is called a?
Polypeptides are chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
How many peptide bond can form for 20 amino acid?
You can form 19 peptide bonds from 20 amino acids. However, in terms of how many different ways that you can chain together 20 amino acids, the number is 20^20.
Are all proteins polymers?
Proteins are polymers of amino acids. Another name for protein is polypeptide. They are made of many (poly = many) amino acids joined together by peptide bonds. (Glycerol and fatty acids are the monomers of lipids)
What do you mean by building blocks?
amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. when many amino acids bind with each other chemically, a peptide bonds is formed.
What is the linkage or bond that is formed between two amino acids to form a protein?
It is called a peptide bond. It is formed by a condensation reaction (that is a reaction where water is produced). When two amino acids join a dipeptide is formed. A typical protein contains many thousands of amino acids all joined together by peptide bonds.
What proteins are joined into long chains called polypeptides?
Many amino acids are joined together by peptide bonds to form polypeptides.
Why is it possible to have thousands of different types of proteins with only 20 amino acids?
There are many different combinations of amino acids and proteins and peptide bonds.
How many peptide bond are present in the insulin molecule?
Look here for human insulinhttp://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P01308#section_featuresThe prepeptide is composed of 110 amino acids, from which are processed 2 chains, one composed of 30 amino acids and the other from 21. These are connected by disulfide bridges.
Hoe are proteins made?
proteins are the biomolecules which are polymers. polymers are the substances formed by the combination of many monomers the monomers of the proteins are amino acids. amino acids are the substaces which contains acid and amine group in them. amino acids are combined together by peptide bonds to form the protein.
