What occurs when a peptide bond forms between two amino acids?

If a peptide bond forms between two amino acids between the amino and carboxyl groups, then how is it possible for more than two amino acids to join together?

  • Answer:

    I'm not sure that this answers your question, but a each molecule has a carboxyl on one end and an amino on the other, so they can form chains; each molecule can have another molecule attached to BOTH ends. Does that answer or were you asking about a possible OTHER TYPE of bond? If so, sorry, I don't know of any.

normally their eyes meet across the room and they fall in love and get married afterwards. Some romances start between other ones who go to the wedding and so on.

Each amino acid has the carboxyl group on one side and the amino group on the other side. So if you imagine each amino acid as a person. The left hand is a carboxyl group and the right hand is an amino group. So if the amino acids were to "hold hands", much like with people, you just keep adding acids to either side. Hope that helps!
