What is a chain of more than 50 amino acids?
A chain of more than 50 amino acids is called a protein. Chains of amino acids in general can be called polypeptides - which refers to the type of bond between the amino acids (a peptide bond).
Amino acids are classified as what and what?
Of the 20 amino acids, 10 must be taken in from an outside source; these are called nonessential amino acids.============================================================Actually its the other way round, amino acids that the human body can't manufacture are called essential amino acids. Non-essential amino acids are able to be produced by the body. Of the 20 amino acids that our bodies use, the adult body is able to manufacture 12For more information, check the link below
Covalent bond between 2 amino acids?
A bond between two amino acids is called a Peptide bond. Two or more amino acids joined in this way is called a polypeptide. The COOH (carboxyl) group of one amino acid joins with the H2N (Amino) group of another Amino Acid to bond and condense out a water molecule (H2O) and so is called condensation polymersation
What are the names for the monomers and polymers of nucleic acids?
monomer = amino acidpolymer = polypeptide (= polypeptide chain)A monomer is one unit in a chain of repeating units. Amino acids are assembled in cells into chains called polypeptides.A protein may consist of just one polypeptide, or more than one. For example, human growth hormone has only one chain, but hemoglobin has four.
How many amino acids could be found in the human body?
There are twenty common protein amino acids in your body, of which half can be formed in the cells. The remainder need to be consumed in our diet, as our body cannot make them, yet they are still vital. There are 2 other amino acids very ocassionally used in proteins (only one in humans) meaning that are 21 different protein amino acids in humans. Some biological pathways use other types of amino acids not found in proteins. There are at least six additional ones found in humans, but it would be difficult to determine an exact number.
A bond that holds three or more amino acids together are called what?
bondiest
What do you call a chain of 25 amino acids?
a chain of 25 amino acids can be called a peptide chain ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Two or united amino acids form a *dipeptide* Three a *tripeptide* Ten or more a *polypeptide* More than 50 *protine* Therefore a chain of 25 amino acids is a polypeptide :D
What is a chain of more than 50 amino acids?
A chain of more than 50 amino acids is called a protein. Chains of amino acids in general can be called polypeptides - which refers to the type of bond between the amino acids (a peptide bond).
How are amino acids are put together by peptide bonds to form polypeptides?
three or more amino acids are needed.
What are the polymers in protein?
Proteins are polymers of amino acids. The monomer of proteins is amino acids. Chains of amino acids are polypeptides and are called proteins if there are more than 20 amino acids in the chain.
Oligopeptides are a string of how many amino acids?
it consists of 10- 20 amino acids ....more than this is called polypeptides.....
What is a chain of 50 or more amino acids called?
proteins
What is a molecule consisting of two or more amino acids called?
Proteins are long chains of amino acids. Smaller chains of amino acids are known as polypeptides. (Proteins are still polypeptides).
Which are the amino acids that make up protein?
This question doesn't make much sense. There are more than three amino acids found in proteins. There are about 20. Some amino acids are more common than others, for example glutamine is one of the most common found in humans.
What are the monomers in proteins?
amino acid
