During protein synthesis on a ribosome, a peptide bond is formed. Between which two functional groups of adjacent amino acids does this bond occur?
Q1. During protein synthesis on a ribosome, a peptide bond is formed. Between which two functional groups of adjacent amino acids does this bond occur?
Answer: Amino group and carboxyl group
Explanation: Peptide bonds form between the amino group of one amino acid and the carboxyl group of another. Peptide-to-peptide bonding is structurally impossible.
