Peptide bond
|
The peptide bond formation is a condensation reaction between the carboxyl group of the amino acid ni and the amino group of the amino acid ni+1.
The is defined by the four atoms φ = C - N - Cα - C (yellow: bond between N - Cα).
The is defined by the four atoms ψ = N - Cα - C - N (green: bond between Cα - C).
The is defined by the four atoms ω = Cα - C - N - Cα (orange: bond between C - N).
