Vedclass · Answer

(B) The given peptide is a pentapeptide,which consists of $5$ amino acid residues: $	ext{alanine}$,$	ext{glycine}$,$	ext{leucine}$,$	ext{alanine}$,and $	ext{valine}$.In a polypeptide chain,the number of peptide linkages is always $(n-1)$,where $n$ is the number of amino acid residues.Here,$n = 5$,so the number of peptide linkages $= 5 - 1 = 4$.

In $\text{alanyl-glycyl-leucyl-alanyl-valine}$,the number of peptide linkages is $......$
