Question

What is the correct statement about peptide bond ?

• A. Found between two carboxylic group of two amino acids
• B. Found between two amino group of two different amino acids
• C. Found between two nitrogen of adjacent amino acids
• D. Found between carboxylic group of one amino acid and amino group of adjacent amino acid

Answer 1

The correct option is D Found between carboxylic group of one amino acid and amino group of adjacent amino acid

Peptide bond or linkage is formed between two amino acids: between a carboxylic group of one amino acid and amino group of another amino acid. Multiple amino acids bond together to form a protein.

So, the correct option is 'Found between carboxylic group of one amino acid and amino group of adjacent amino acid'.
