Peptides are chains of amino acids
Two amino acid molecules can be covalently joined through a substituted amide linkage, termed a peptide bond,
to yield a dipeptide
Serylglyciltyrosylalanylleucineor
Ser-Gly-Tyr-Ala-Leuor
SGYAL
Pentapeptide
Peptides are named beginning with the amino-terminalresidue, which by convention is placed at the left.

The vast majority of naturally occurring proteins contain fewer than 2,000 amino acid residues.
Biologically active peptides and polypeptides occur in a vast range of sizes
Multisubunit proteins: have two or more polypeptide chains associated noncovalently
If at least two chains are identical → the protein is said to be oligomeric, and the identical units (consisting of one or more chains) are referred to as protomers.
![Page 19: Chemistry 501 Handout 3 Amino Acids, Peptides, and Proteins Chapter 3 Dep. of Chemistry & Biochemistry Prof. Indig Lehninger. Principles of Biochemistry.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/5a4d1ad87f8b9ab059973b0d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Some proteins contain chemical groups other than amino acids (conjugated proteins).
Polypeptides have characteristic amino acid compositions
The non-amino acid part of the conjugated protein is usually called its prosthetic group.

1.0 unit of enzyme activity = amount of enzyme causing the transformation of 1.0 mol of substrate per minute at 25oC under optimal conditions of measurement.
Refers to the total number of units of enzyme in a solution.
Number of enzyme units per milligram of total protein.
A measure of enzyme purity: it increases during purificationof an enzyme and becomes maximal and constant when the
enzyme is pure.
