Difference between Peptide and Protease

Peptide vs. Protease

Peptides (from Gr.: πεπτός, peptós "digested"; derived from πέσσειν, péssein "to digest") are short chains of amino acid monomers linked by peptide (amide) bonds. A protease (also called a peptidase or proteinase) is an enzyme that performs proteolysis: protein catabolism by hydrolysis of peptide bonds.

Similarities between Peptide and Protease

Peptide and Protease have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Amino acid, Carboxylic acid, Covalent bond, Enzyme, Fungus, Peptide bond, Plant, Protein, Protein tag, Proteolysis.

Amino acid

Amino acids are organic compounds containing amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.
