Acid-base properties Another important feature of free amino acids is the existence of both a basic and an acidic group at the α-carbon. Compounds such as amino acids that can act as either anacidor abaseare called amphoteric. The basic amino group typically has a pKa between 9 and 10,...
Amino acid - Building Blocks, Structure, Functions: One of the most useful manners by which to classify the standard (or common) amino acids is based on the polarity (that is, the distribution of electric charge) of the R group (e.g., side chain). Grou
• 20 standard amino acids correspond to codons. Amino Acid Structure Zwitter Ion: • At physiological PH (7.4) –COOH group (weak acid/proton donor) is dissociated forming a negatively charged carboxylate ion (COO-) –amino group (weak base/proton acceptor) is protonated forming positively ...
(a) Common structure of α-amino acids, position of the α-carbon is labeled; ‘R’ represents any number of possible chemical structures, which may be as simple as a single hydrogen atom (–H, as in the amino acid glycine) or more complex chemical groups, as in (b); (b) Examples...

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein synthesis. They are structural elements and energy sources of cells necessary for normal cell growth, differentiation and function. Amino acid metabolism disorders have been linked with a number of pathologi
The native structure of a protein is that structure which possesses the lowest feasible free energy. Therefore, the structure of a protein is not random but somewhat ordered. when the restrictions of the peptide bond are superimposed on a polyamino acid chain of a globular protein, a right ...
