polypeptide [SO_0000104]

A sequence of amino acids linked by peptide bonds which may lack appreciable tertiary structure and may not be liable to irreversible denaturation. This term is mapped to MGED. Do not obsolete without consulting MGED ontology. The term ‘protein’ was merged with ‘polypeptide’. Although ‘protein’ was a sequence_attribute and therefore meant to describe the quality rather than an actual feature, it was being used erroneously. It is replaced by ‘peptidyl’ as the polymer attribute.
