In conclusion, we would like to emphasize two points: first, the importance of the cis conformation of peptide bonds in protein structures, especially if it is a Xaa–nonPro peptide bond ...

Within a protein, multiple amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds, thereby forming a long chain. Peptide bonds are formed by a biochemical reaction that extracts a water molecule as it ...

The key to collagen’s longevity lies in the way its peptide bonds interact with each other. The researchers found a unique atomic-level interaction that defends collagen against water molecules.
