Laboratory 7: Building models of Biological MacromoleculesQuestions:
1. Which functional groups are involved in buiding a covalent bond between these amino acids?
Amine and Carboxylic acid = Amide
2. When the covalent bond is built between alanine and glycine, which functional group will alanine use for peptide bond?
Carboxylic Acid
3. When the covalent bond is built between alanine and glycine, which functional group will glycine use for peptide bond?
Amine
4. When the covalent bond is built between glycine and alanine, which functional group will alanine use for peptide bond?
Carboxylic Acid; the NOOH group of forms the peptide bond.
5. When the covalent bond is built between glycine and alanine,
