Concept #1: Peptide Bonds

Practice: Considering that peptide bond hydrolysis is exergonic, how is the stability of a peptide bond accounted for?

Practice: Highlight the peptide bonds in the figure below & circle all the α-carbons. How many peptide bonds are there?

Practice: Which of the following best represents the backbone atom arrangement of two peptide bonds?
