• A peptide bond is a covalent bond that is formed between two amino acids when the carboxyl group of one molecule reacts with the amino group of the another molecule.– Peptide bonds between amino acids are formed by dehydration synthesis.
• A single linear chain of amino acids bonded together by peptide bonds is called polypeptide
• For chains under 40 residues the term peptide is frequently used instead of protein.

Function of Nucleic acids
• DNA contains all the information - coding which is used to control functions, behavior and development of an organism. – Long term storage device to store the genetic instructions. – The code from which all proteins in the cell are synthesized– Code for the way proteins turn genes on or off.
• RNA carries out the instructions encoded in DNA– Protein synthesis– In some organisms it is also responsible for carrying the genetic code. – Some RNA are involved in the regulation of the gene expression
