Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation : To comprehend the amino acid present in the given structure of tripeptide.
Concept Introduction : Amino acids are organic molecules with -NH2 and −COOH groups bonded on same carbon atom. Here these two
(b)
Interpretation : The name of tripeptide should be determined.
Concept Introduction : Amino acids are organic molecules with -NH2 and −COOH groups bonded on same carbon atom. Here these two functional groups are involved in the formation of an amide linkage which is called as peptide linkage. Two amino acids combine to form one dipeptide molecule and three amino acids form a tripeptide.
(c)
Interpretation : The three letters and one letter abbreviation for the tripeptide should be determined.
