Protein Synthesis_Test Review

What is the function of a peptide bond in protein structure?

• It connects the phosphate group of one nucleotide and a sugar of a neighboring nucleotide.

• It holds two amino acids together, forming a protein.

• It holds hydrogen and oxygen molecules together.

• It is formed by the sharing of electrons.
