  2. Ligase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligase

    In biochemistry, a ligase is an enzyme that can catalyze the joining of two molecules by forming a new chemical bond.This is typically via hydrolysis of a small pendant chemical group on one of the molecules, typically resulting in the formation of new C-O, C-S, or C-N bonds.

  3. Chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bond

    Two p-orbitals forming a pi-bond. A double bond has two shared pairs of electrons, one in a sigma bond and one in a pi bond with electron density concentrated on two opposite sides of the internuclear axis. A triple bond consists of three shared electron pairs, forming one sigma and two pi bonds. An example is nitrogen.

  4. Double bond rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_bond_rule

    Moreover, the multiple bonds of the elements with n=2 are much stronger than usual, because lone pair repulsion weakens their sigma bonding but not their pi bonding. [2] An example is the rapid polymerization that occurs upon condensation of disulfur , the heavy analogue of O 2 .

  5. Peptide bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peptide_bond

    Peptide bond formation via dehydration reaction. When two amino acids form a dipeptide through a peptide bond, [1] it is a type of condensation reaction. [2] In this kind of condensation, two amino acids approach each other, with the non-side chain (C1) carboxylic acid moiety of one coming near the non-side chain (N2) amino moiety of the other.

    Also in 2016, Quizlet launched "Quizlet Live", a real-time online matching game where teams compete to answer all 12 questions correctly without an incorrect answer along the way. [17] In 2017, Quizlet created a premium offering called "Quizlet Go" (later renamed "Quizlet Plus"), with additional features available for paid subscribers.

  7. Carbon–carbon bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon–carbon_bond

    Carbon is one of the few elements that can form long chains of its own atoms, a property called catenation.This coupled with the strength of the carbon–carbon bond gives rise to an enormous number of molecular forms, many of which are important structural elements of life, so carbon compounds have their own field of study: organic chemistry.

  8. Quintuple bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quintuple_bond

    The σ-bond is the result of mixing between the d z 2 orbital on each metal center. The first π-bond comes from mixing of the d yz orbitals from each metal while the other π-bond comes from the d xz orbitals on each metal mixing. Finally the δ-bonds come from mixing of the d xy orbitals as well as mixing between the d x 2 −y 2 orbitals ...

  9. Delta bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_bond

    In chemistry, a delta bondbond) is a covalent chemical bond, in which four lobes of an atomic orbital on one atom overlap four lobes of an atomic orbital on another atom. This overlap leads to the formation of a bonding molecular orbital with two nodal planes which contain the internuclear axis and go through both atoms.
