Peptide synthesis is known as the production or formation of a bond, known as peptide bond, by adding one amino acid at a time. While it is difficult to accurately define peptide, it mostly refers to amide combining the amino group of one amino acid with the carboxyl group of another. Although making of peptide bonds to connect amino acids is some 100 years old, it is rather hard to combine and form chains of amino acids. You can get an idea of this by the example of insulin and oxytocin, the first peptides to be formed, which couldn’t be synthesized for another 50 to 60 years. But forward movements in protein synthesis chemistry, in the previous 50 years, have made peptide synthesis a frequently used method in biological research and d rug development. The advantage of peptide synthesis, apart from the forming of peptides that are discovered in biological specimens, is that more ingenuity can be employed to come up with distinct peptides to enhance a preferred biological
