The process of 'translation' in protein synthesis involves formation of a peptide bond between two amino acids that are attached to two distinct transfer RNAs (tRNAs). For long, scientists have been ...

A peptide bond is a chemical bond formed between two molecules when the carboxyl group of one molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule, releasing a molecule of water (H2O). This is a ...

Nature makes amide bonds—the key linkages that string together amino acids in a polypeptide—like a knitting whiz. The ribosome in Escherichia coli bacteria, for example, can make eight amide bonds in ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 51, No. 6 (Jun. 15, 1964), pp. 1291-1299 (9 pages) ...

Peptide synthesis is an expanding component of the biotechnology industry. With advances in the technology of linking amino acids together, the cost of synthetic peptides has dropped dramatically, ...

Synthesis and chemical modification of peptides are becoming popular with click chemistry techniques. Click chemistry is a term introduced by Professors Valery V. Fokin and Nobel laureate K.B.

Peptides have emerged as indispensable tools in modern drug discovery, playing a central role in areas such as oncology, metabolic disorders, targeted delivery, and protein–protein interaction ...

The genetic information stored in DNA is “decoded” to form proteins via the process of translation. This involves the formation of peptide bonds between amino acids bound to transfer RNA (tRNA) ...
