Which functional groups of amino acids from a peptide bond?
Added by Benjamin S.

Step 1
This bond formation results in the release of a water molecule (H2O). The peptide bond is represented as -CO-NH-. So, the functional groups of amino acids that form a peptide bond are the amino group (NH2) and the carboxyl group (COOH). Show more…
