Description: The amide bond formation leaves an amino group available on one end of the tetrapeptide and a carboxylate group on the other, called the N-terminus and C-terminus, respectively. The portion of each amino acid remaining in the chain is called an amino acid residue. When specifying an amino acid residue in a peptide, the suffix –yl may be used (e.g., glycinyl, alanyl).
