Definition
English
:
Members of the class of compounds composed of
AMINO ACIDS
joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent
amino acids
into linear, branched or cyclical structures.
OLIGOPEPTIDES
are composed of approximately 2-12
amino acids
. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more
amino acids
.
PROTEINS
are linear polypeptides that are normally synthesized on
RIBOSOMES.
