Peptide bonds are formed by a biochemical reaction that extracts a water molecule as it joins the amino group of one amino acid to the carboxyl group of a neighboring amino acid. The linear ...

A peptide bond is a covalent bond that forms between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another, with the release of a water molecule. This process, known as condensation or ...

Esters are formed by the condensation reaction between an alcohol and a carboxylic acid. This is known as esterification. In a condensation reaction, two molecules join and produce a larger ...
