Peptide chemical synthesis lab report. Give a brief<br> introduction of what peptide synthesis is?
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The production of peptides linking aminoacids through peptidic bonds

Explanation:

The most common way to make a chemical peptide synthesis is linking first the carboxyl end of one amino acid to the amino group, not in the other direction. The opposite reaction, starting from the amino end and linking to the carboxyl end, is made in biosynthesis made by living organisms.
