Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Amino acid residues in a tripeptide should be identified, name of the tripeptide, three-letters and one-letter abbreviations for the tripeptide should be determined.
Concept introduction:
► Two amino acid molecules join together to form a peptide bond with the release of a water molecule. The part of amino acid that remains in the peptide is called the amino acid residue.
► Tripeptides are the peptides that contain three amino acid residues.
► Each tripeptide is named after the names of amino acid residues using three-letters and one letter abbreviations.
To determine: Amino acid residues in a tripeptide, names of the tripeptide using three-letters and one-letter abbreviations.
