Amino Acids
Amino Acids - Amino acids are compounds containing carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. They serve mainly as monomers (building blocks) of proteins. An amino acid is represented by a general empirical formula R.CH.NH 2..
Amino Acids
Proteins are the polymers of amino acids. Therefore, amino acids form the raw material for protein synthesis. The proteins found in living organisms need about 20 amino acids as building blocks or m..
Physical Properties of Amino Acids
zwitter ion Physical Properties of Amino acids - Amino acids are colourless, crystalline solids. They are water-soluble high melting solids and behave like salts. The a -carbon atom has 'R' which is a side chain. This side chain is different for differenth..
Amino Acids
 catabolic waste products of sugar fats and proteins Excess amino acids or proteins in higher animals are broken down into ammonia which are converted into less toxic substances like urea and uric acid in the liver. But in lower animals like molluscs and echinoderms the excess amino acid ge..
Structures of Amino Acids
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. There are 300 amino acids that occur in nature. Among these only 20 are known as standard amino acids that commonly occur in proteins. Amino acids con..

Synthesis of amino acids
amino acid synthesis by reductive animation Amino acids are synthesised by two main processes: 1) Reductive animation In this process, ammonia reacts with a -ketoglutaric acid to form glutamic acid..
Proteins
Proteins - Proteins, which constitute about 10 to 12% of the cell contents, are macromolecules having a significant role in the metabolism of a cell. Proteins are polymers of amino acids. Each protein is a linear, unbranched, polypeptide m..
Acidic Amino Acids
These have two carboxyl groups and one amino group. The free carboxyl group is acidic in nature. For example, aspartic acid and glutamic acid..
Polar amino acids with no charge
cycteine aspargine tyrosine These amino acids do not have any charge on the 'R' group. These amino acids participate in hydrogen bonding of protein structure. The amino acids in this group are - serine, threonine, tyrosine, cysteine, glutamine and aspargin..
