Detailed explanation-1: -The amino group of one amino acid is going to react with the carboxylic acid functional group of the other amino acid and forms a peptide to hold the adjacent amino acids together. Peptide bond is also called amide bond.
Detailed explanation-2: -Within a protein, multiple amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds, thereby forming a long chain. Peptide bonds are formed by a biochemical reaction that extracts a water molecule as it joins the amino group of one amino acid to the carboxyl group of a neighboring amino acid.
Detailed explanation-3: -A peptide bond is basically an amide-type of covalent chemical bond. This bond links two consecutive alpha-amino acids from C1 (carbon number one) of one alpha-amino acid and N2 (nitrogen number two) of another. This linkage is found along a peptide or protein chain.
