Well... SORT of. Technically, the bases contain the NCO (amide) moiety that characterizes a peptide bond. However, they occur in heterocyclic rings, and it's stretching a point to call them "peptide bonds" since they're not linking two peptide residues. Also, they're in the cis-form, which is atypical of peptide bonds.

What are the bonds found in DNA molecules?

The bonds found in DNA molecules are hydrogen bonds between complementary nitrogenous bases (adenine-thymine and guanine-cytosine) and phosphodiester bonds between the sugar and phosphate groups of adjacent nucleotides in the backbone of the DNA strand.


How do protein form?

DNA molecules form amino acids. Amino acids are bonded together by peptide bonds. This chain on amino acids and peptide bonds form the structure for protein.


What type of carbohydrate contains a peptide bond?

A peptide bond is a covalent bond found in proteins, not carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are made up of monosaccharides, which are linked together by glycosidic bonds, not peptide bonds.


Do nucleic acids contain a peptide bond?

No, nucleic acids do not contain peptide bonds. Peptide bonds are specific to proteins, linking amino acids together. Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, are composed of nucleotides linked by phosphodiester bonds, which connect the sugar of one nucleotide to the phosphate group of another.


Which macromolecules has peptide bonds?

Peptide bonds are primarily found in proteins, which are polymers made up of amino acids. Peptide bonds form between the amino group of one amino acid and the carboxyl group of another amino acid during protein synthesis.


In protein synthesis a nucleus forms peptide bonds?

In protein synthesis, peptide bonds are formed in the ribosome, not in the nucleus. The nucleus is responsible for housing the DNA and transcribing it into messenger RNA (mRNA) for protein synthesis to occur in the ribosome.

Proteins are formed by peptide bonds between amino acids.


Are there peptide bonds in Tyrosine?

No. Tyrosine is an amino acid that forms peptide bonds with the others in polypeptide chains.


Pepsin breaks down protein but test for peptides is negative?

the results are negative because pesin breaks peptide bonds. therefore no peptide will be found in the test.
