| 10 | '''Peptide synthesis''' is the chemical assembly of a peptide from protected amino acid building blocks. It proceeds from the C-terminus towards the N-terminus, in the opposite direction to biological translation, because that ordering avoids racemisation of the activated residue.{{r|merrifield1963}} | 11 | '''Peptide synthesis''' is the chemical assembly of a peptide from protected amino acid building blocks.
