Amino acids "join together" to form polypeptides. The amino acids are covalently bonded together via a condensation reaction to form a peptide bond. A chain of the amino acids bonded together is known as the polypeptide. A protein is made up of one or more polypeptides.

Are proteins a linear string of amino acids or a folded string of amino acids?

Proteins are initially synthesized as linear strings of amino acids. However, they typically undergo folding to adopt a specific three-dimensional structure, which is important for their function. This folding process is crucial for proteins to achieve their functional shape and perform their biological roles effectively.
