A peptide bond
is created between two specific amino acids during the peptide synthesis
process. However, peptides are just amino acid chains that may bend and change
shape. This is the generally agreed upon definition of peptides in the
biosciences. Scientists sought to artificially create hormones like insulin and
oxytocin as a direct consequence of this. Additionally, significant progress
has been made in protein chemistry and its applications throughout the course
of the previous years. This technique has matured into one ...
