Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary structure of a peptide?
  • Step 1: Understand that a peptide is a chain made up of smaller units called amino acids.
  • Step 2: Know that amino acids are linked together by special connections called peptide bonds.
  • Step 3: Recognize that the primary structure of a peptide is simply the order in which these amino acids are arranged in the chain.
  • Step 4: Remember that this sequence is important because it determines how the peptide will function.
