All amino acids contain an amino group and a carboxyl (acid) group. To form polypeptides and proteins, amino acids are joined together by peptide bonds, in which the amino of one amino acid bonds to the carboxyl (acid)  group of another amino acid. A peptide is two or more amino acids joined together by peptide bonds. Proteins are long chains of amino acids held by peptide bonds.
