The covalent bond between amino acids is called a peptide bond. It is really an amide bond, so letâs look at amide bonds first. In organic chemistry, a carboxylic acid reacts with an amine in a so-called condensation reaction to form an amide plus water. R(C=O)-OH + H-NRâ â R(C=O)-NRâ + HâO. carboxylic acid + amine â amide.
A peptides is a molecule composed of two or more amino acids. The bond that holds together the two amino acids is a peptide bond, or a covalent chemical bond between two compounds (in this case, two amino acids). It occurs when the carboxylic group of one molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule, linking the two molecules and releasing a water molecule.
