Amino acids are connected to one another in a polypeptide chain through peptide bonds. Peptide bonds form between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another amino acid, creating a chain of amino acids in a specific sequence.

What chain is proteins in?

Proteins are first produced as polypeptide chains. This is known as the primary structure of the proteins. Polypeptide or protein chain comprised of amino acids connected each other with peptide bonds.

Polypeptides are chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.


Is A polypeptide is a sequence of proteins or amino acids?

A polypeptide is a chain of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. It is not a sequence of proteins, but rather a precursor to protein formation. When a polypeptide chain folds into a specific structure, it becomes a functional protein.


Is polypeptide an amino acid?

No, a polypeptide is not an amino acid. A polypeptide is a chain of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and are the individual units that make up a polypeptide chain.


What are building monomeric units of proteins?

The monomeric units are called amino acids, connected by polypeptide bonds.


How many strings of amino acids dose a polypeptide consist of?

Building block unit of a polypeptide chain?

The building block unit of a polypeptide chain is an amino acid. Amino acids are organic compounds containing an amine group and a carboxylic acid group, along with a side chain that is specific to each amino acid. Multiple amino acids are linked together via peptide bonds to form a polypeptide chain.


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


Chains of amino acids make what which can join together to make a what?

A polypeptide. This polypeptide goes through further development (such as adding hydrogen bonds and bending it in a certain way) and becomes a usable protein.


How do proteins differ from one another in the number and sequence of amino acids?

the sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain differs from protein to protein -xbanditlover


What kind of bonds join the amino acids in a polypeptide chain?

Well! Polypeptides are chain of amino-acids better known as proteins. Those amino-acids are join together by peptide bonds. Peptide bonds form when two amino-acids undego the process of condensation reaction, or dehydration synthesis where a carboxyl group of one amino-acid reacts with the amino group of another amino acid releasing water.
