     Define the following terms in relation to proteins:

                 (i)        Peptide linkage

                (ii)       Denaturation

    Marks:2
    Answer:

    (i) When carboxyl group of one amino acid and amino group of another amino acid are condensed together with elimination of water, it results in formation of  -CO-NH- linkage. This linkage is called peptide linkage. This results in formation of dipeptide.
    (ii) A process that changes the physical and biological properties of the proteins without affecting their chemical composition is called denaturation (of proteins). The denaturation is caused by change in pH or temperature. It breaks the hydrogen bonds existing between protein molecules.
