Hi All ,

As we all know there are some drugs which are taken orally whereas others are injectables. The drugs based on protein molecules are injectables so that they are not broken down by acids in stomach.

Can you please share below info

> Name of the Functional Group present in the drug molecules that might be broken

> type of such reaction that would cause breakdown

What functional groups do you know? What functional groups are present in proteins?
