A peptide bond connects two amino acids. It forms when the amino group of one amino acid reacts with the carboxyl group of another amino acid, releasing a molecule of water in the process.
The name of the bond between two amino acids is peptide bond. These bonds are covalent bonds when one molecule's amino group reacts with another's carboxyl group.
A peptide bond joins two amino acids. Chains of amino acids together are called polypeptides.
Amino acids are joined by peptide bonds. A peptide bond is a covalent bond that forms between two amino acids when the carboxyl group (COOH) of one amino acid reacts with the amino group (NH2) of the other amino acid, resulting in a C-N bond, which is a peptide bond.

Proteins are polymers of amino acid molecules
A bond formed during translation is a peptide bond. It forms between the amino acids in the growing polypeptide chain being synthesized by the ribosome. The formation of the peptide bond occurs through a condensation reaction between the amino group of one amino acid and the carboxyl group of another amino acid.
Peptide bonds link monomers, known as amino acids, in a protein. A peptide bond forms between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another amino acid, resulting in the formation of a polypeptide chain.
Proteins are typically charged molecules because they contain both positively charged amino acids (e.g., lysine, arginine) and negatively charged amino acids (e.g., glutamate, aspartate). The overall charge of a protein depends on the balance between these charged amino acids in its structure.
