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.
Polypeptides. Polypeptides are chains of amino acids. Proteins are made up of one or more polypeptide molecules. The amino acids are linked covalently by peptide bonds.The graphic on the right shows how three amino acids are linked by peptide bonds into a tripeptide.One end of every polypeptide, called the amino terminal or N-terminal, has a free amino group.roteins are made up of one or more polypeptide molecules. The amino acids are linked covalently by peptide bonds. The graphic on the right shows how three amino acids are linked by peptide bonds into a tripeptide.
