A Pepited bond is formed by the interaction of

Options

A. amino group of one `alpha`- amino aldehyde with aldehyde group of another `alpha`-animo aldehyde with loss of water.
B. carboxy group of one `alpha`-amino acid with the of another `alpha` amino acid attended with loss of water.
C. `alpha`-amimo of one `alpha`-amino acid with `alpha`-group of another `alpha`-amino attended with loss of ammonia.
D. `alpha`-amino group of one `alpha`-amino acid with carboxy group of another molecule of the same of different `alpha`-amino acid attended with loss of water

Answer

D

Explanation

Peptides are amides formed by interaction between amino groups and carboxyl group of amino acids.

The `-overset(O)overset(||)(C)-overset(H)overset(|)(N)-` (amide) linkage that forms between the amino acids is known as a peptide bond or peptide linkage.
