Hello everyone.
00:02
So in this question we are asked what type of reaction takes place? what type of reaction takes place when two amino acids join together? so we know that the amino acids are bound together by a particular bond called as the peptide bond.
00:37
So how this peptide bond is formed? the peptide bond is formed by a reaction called as condensation reaction.
00:47
Condensation reaction.
00:50
So condensation reaction is a reaction in which two molecules, two molecules combine to form a single molecule.
01:15
During this condensation reaction, a small molecule, for example, the water is usually removed during this reaction.
01:39
Now, we know that the amino acids are important biological molecule.
01:47
They have an amine group on one end of the molecule and a functional amine group and a carboxylic acid functional group on the other end.
02:12
Mh2 and this cooh.
02:17
So when two amino acids combine in a condensation reaction, a covalent bond is.
02:26
Formed covalent bond is formed between this amine nitrogen and the carboxyl carbon of the second amino acids.
02:40
So during this reaction we see that a water molecule is removed as a second product...
