Although legalization activists and many marijuana users believe smoking pot has no negative effects, scientific research indicates that marijuana use can cause many different health problems. Marijuana is the most commonly used illicit drug in the United States.
A peptide bond (amide bond) is a covalent chemical bond formed between two amino acid molecules.ne loses a hydrogen and oxygen from its carboxyl group (COOH) and the other loses a hydrogen from its amino group (NH 2). This reaction produces a molecule of water (H 2 O) and two amino acids joined by a peptide bond (-CO-NH-).
1 Folding can also result in covalent bonding between the R groups of cysteine amino acids. 2  This type of bonding forms what is called a disulfide bridge. 3  Interactions called van der Waals forces also assist in the stabilization of protein structure.roteins are biological polymers composed of amino acids. Amino acids, linked together by peptide bonds, form a polypeptide chain. One or more polypeptide chains twisted into a 3-D shape form a protein. Proteins have complex shapes that include various folds, loops, and curves.
