Peptide bonds hold adjacent amino acids together. Peptide bonds are covalent. But the bonds that dictate the secondary, tertiary, and Quaternary structure of the resulting protein are generally hydrogen bonds, van der Walls interations, and hydrophobic interactions.

What bonds holds amino acids together?
Amino acids are chemically combined by the formation of peptide bonds.
What are protein bonds called?
a peptide bond is the covalent bond that holds two amino acids together.
What molecules do amino acids make up?
All proteins contain amino acids as part of their primary structure. For some examples: insulin, glucagon, collagen. There are other biological molecules that use amino acids such as the biopolymer peptidoglycan found in bacteria cell walls.
What are the molecule codes for protein?
RNA
Which macromolecule acts as a buffer?
The answer is Yes! Proteins are made up of amino acids and a typical amino acid has two H- (hydrogen) connected to a Nitrogen and grabs on to a carbon which holds a H another carbon which double bonds with an O+ (Oxygen) and an OH. The last bond the middle carbon creates to fill its valence shell is to a "R" or a radical variable side change.
What kind of bond holds amino acids together?
peptide bonds hold the amino acids together.
What bonds holds amino acids together?
Amino acids are chemically combined by the formation of peptide bonds.
A bond that holds three or more amino acids together are called what?
bondiest
What type of covalent bond holds together the amino acids in DNA?
There are no amino acids in desoxy ribo nucleic acid: its is (desoxy)-ribose (carbohydrate)and nucleic acid not amino!
What are protein bonds called?
a peptide bond is the covalent bond that holds two amino acids together.
What holds the beta sheets of protein together?
locations of key amino acids allows for association through hydrogen bonding
What tissue holds up cartilage?
Glucosamine, Chondroiton, MSM, hyaluronic acid, and amino acids.
What molecules do amino acids make up?
All proteins contain amino acids as part of their primary structure. For some examples: insulin, glucagon, collagen. There are other biological molecules that use amino acids such as the biopolymer peptidoglycan found in bacteria cell walls.
What type of bond is a peptide bond?
A chemical bond formed through a condensation reaction that holds together the building blocks of proteins. Usually 2 sub units of amino acids.
the name of a molecule that is created when an -H and an -OH group combine?
what is a special type of covalent bond that holds amino acids togethe?
How are amino acids joined?
Every amino acid has 5 main parts to it, a carbon in the middle bonded to a Hydrogen, a variable group, a carboxyl group and an amine group. The important 2 for bonding are the carboxyl group which has a carbon double bonded to an Oxygen and a single bond to a hydroxyl group. The amine group is a nitrogen group bonded to 2 hydrogen. In order to bond, the amine group of one amino acid has to align with the carboxyl group of another. Then, the hydroxyl group of the carboxyl will react with a hydrogen on the amino group to release a water in a process known as dehydration synthesis. As the water gets removed, the nitrogen from the amine group bonds to the carbon in the carboxyl, completing a peptide bond between our 2 amino acids. These peptide bonds can occur at either end of an amino acid, allowing us to make long chains of daunting length. Since amino acid sequences are often so long, the structure can easily be affected by other amino acids far away in the linear chain. On the small scale, this allows for amino acid chains that either form helices or pleated sheets. On a larger scale, the chains can make complex bonding patterns that fold back, twist, turn, and allow for the basis of all life!
Which of the following brings amino acids into a ribosome to be assembled into a protein?
transfer RNA (tRNA) attaches to amino acids and transports them to ribosomes, the site at which amino acids are assembled into proteins.I hope that helps!
