Various side reactions, nevertheless, could be triggered at this step and lead to the formation of abundant side products such as that with side chain modification, redundant amino acid incorporation, or end-capped truncated sequence that terminates the peptide chain elongation or conjugation. ...
coli aspartic acid can attach at low-levels to tRNAAsp through the side chain β-carboxyl group rather than the normal α-carboxyl linkage, which leads to the misincorporation of isoaspartyl and a kinked peptide backbone structure (Momand and Clarke, 1990). Additionally, tRNAs contain ...
Radical LII is assigned to a one-electron reduction of the carboxyl group in the amino acid backbone, followed by proton transfer across a hydrogen bond between a carboxylic oxygen and a neighboring asparagine molecule. Radical LIII is suggested to be formed by a net CO2 abstraction from an ...
Amino acid, any of a group of organic molecules that consist of a basic amino group, an acidic carboxyl group, and a unique organic side chain. The term amino acid is short for α-amino [alpha-amino] carboxylic acid. Examples of amino acids include glyci
Amino acid (AA) consists of a carbon atom attached to a/an: Carboxyl group (-COOH) Hydrogen atom Amino group (-NH2) Variable R group (side chain): determines unique properties Only L-form amino acids are incorporated into proteins during translation. There are 21 standard proteinogenic amin...
Figure 1. Amino acids have a central asymmetric carbon to which an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom, and a side chain (R group) are attached. Amino acidsare the monomers that make up proteins. Each amino acid has the same fundamental structure, which consists of a central ...
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
Interaction patterns with the backbone atoms of the amino acid ligand are strikingly consistent within Class II aaRSs. This class forms hydrogen bonds with the primary amine group in 92.15% of all structures. Additionally, hydrogen bonds with the oxygen atom of the carboxyl group occur in 65.70%...
