As proteins are amino acids so all peptides and polypeptides are polymers of amino acids. There are 20 amino acids that are relevant to the make-up of mammalian proteins Several other amino acids are found in the body free or in combined states (i.e. not associated with peptides or proteins).

Proteins are made up of monomers called?
The monomers of proteins are amino acids.
Is A polypeptide is a sequence of proteins or amino acids?
Yes, a polypeptide is a sequence of amino acids.
What monomer makes up enzyme?
amino acids make proteins and an enzyme is a protein so......
How many amino acids do living things contain?
There are twenty amino acids, of which around half are made in the body. The other 10 are called 'essential amino acids', because they cannot be formed in our cells, so we must take them in, in our diet.
Why almost all amino acids in nature will be of the L-configuration?
No one knows, however there are several scientific theories. Personally, I believe it was by chance because neither L or D amino acids are thermodynamically, sterically, chemically or physically favored.
What are protein that do not contain amino acids?
Proteins by nature are made of amino acids...so none of them.
What is the monomer for protein?
Proteins are formed from the basic units called as amino acids. There are 20 amino acids in the body of human being. You have over 300 amino acids found in the nature.
What are the monomers for the polymers in proteins?
The monomers of proteins are called Amino Acids.
What is the relationship between protein and amino?
Protiens are nothing but simply polypeptide chain of amino acids. In other terms amino acids are the building blocks of protiens. The specific sequence of amino acids determine the nature of protien they produce. -Anant
Why did nature choose the specific 20 amino acids?
It is my belief that at that time when chemical reactions began nature chose the specific 20 amino acids because of the composition of the atmosphere of the early earth.
Proteins are made up of monomers called?
The monomers of proteins are amino acids.
What is the monomer for building a protein?
Amino acids. There are twenty different amino acids that nature uses routinely to produce proteins. Nature has a very specific order for incorporating these amino acids to produce any specific protein. This order is coded by the genes of the organism and in an elaborate way, the code is interpreted into the order of amino acid incorporation during protein synthesis.
What repeating units make up a protein fatty acids peptide acids amino acids carboxylic acids?
They are the amino acids. They are the monomers
Proteins are formed of building blocks called?
Amino acids held together by peptide bonds.
Monomer of proteins?
Amino acids.
How many acids are their?
amino acids?? 20 amino acids
What are amino acids that cannot be made by metabolism called?
Amino acids that cannot be made by metabolism are called essential amino acids. These amino acids must be obtained through diet.
