Two amino acids may be joined by condensation between the carboxylic acid group of one molecule and the amino group of the other molecule, with the splitting out of a molecule of water.... The bond formed between the carbonyl group (-CO-) and the imino group (-NH-) is called a peptide bond. A dipeptide is a compound formed by the union of two amino acids through one peptide bond, such as alanyl-serine shown above. A tripeptide is formed from three amino acids joined by two peptide bonds, while a tetrapeptide is formed from four amino acids, etc. When many amino acids are linked into a chain by peptide bonds, the structure is called a polypeptide.

Exceptions to this structure are formic acid (HCOOH) and oxalic acid (HOOCCOOH). The number of carbon atoms ranges from 1 (formic) to 26 (cerotic), the carbon of the terminal group being counted as part of the chain. Carboxylic acids include the large and important class of fatty acids ..., and may be either saturated or unsaturated. A few contain halogen atoms (chloroacetic).

Carbon dioxide assimilation. In C3 (Calvin cycle) plants, carbon reduction starts with the carboxylation of ribulose biphosphate (Rubisco) and with a first product (phosphoglyceric acid) being reduced to a 3-carbon sugar. In C4 plants, CO2 is assimilated into the 4-carbon oxaloacetic acid by the enzyme PEP carboxylase, decarboxylation takes place and the liberated CO2 is refixed through the normal Calvin cycle in bundle sheath chloroplasts. Succulents have a malate-based CAM cycle. 3, record 12, English, - carboxylation
