How to draw amino acids and peptide bonds to make a protein

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.
To connect amino acids together, a peptide bond (also called an amide bond) has to be formed.
When a peptide bond is created between two amino acids, a molecule of water is liberated.
As more and more amino acids are added to the chain, the protein's primary structure is made.

    Nice work ... Thank you ♥ * The last one is not phenylalanine. It is Tyrosine.

    When drawing the polypeptide chain the R groups should alternate. In your depiction they are all on the same side.

    draw a polypeptide chain (at least 5 amino acids) complete with its peptide bonds (give different colors). the chiral carbon is given a different color. the r group gives it a different color too???please answer☹️

    The vid should tell us what that first dipeptide made from glycine and alanine is called. I'm guessing "glycyl-alanine", "glycylalanine" or "alanyl-glycine", or something like that. Or maybe "glycyl-alanide"?
