An oligopeptide is a short chain of amino acids, typically consisting of 2 to 20 amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. These molecules are smaller than proteins, which are composed of longer chains. Oligopeptides play various roles in biological processes, including acting as hormones, signaling molecules, and precursors to larger proteins. Their specific functions and properties depend on the sequence and composition of the amino acids they contain.
