What consists of an amino group a carboxyl group and a side chain?
Amino Acids
What are the 3 groups of atoms that make up amino acids called?
Amino group(NH2), Carboxyl group(CO2), and the side chain, represented by 'R' H .....H ....O ..\ ....| ...// ...N--C--C ../.... | ...\ H..... R ....O-
Describe a generalised structure of amino acids?
Amino acids have a generalised structure consisting of an amino group (-NH2), a carboxyl group (-COOH), and a side chain represented by the letter "R". The side chain can vary among different amino acids, giving them distinct chemical properties. The central carbon atom (alpha carbon) connects the amino group, carboxyl group, and the side chain, forming the backbone of the amino acid.
What are three groups of atoms that make up amino called?
carboxyl group, amino group, side chain
A sh side group are referred as?
Thiol.
All amino acids have an amino group and a carboxylic acid but each one has a unique?
R- group - or Side Chain.
What are three groups of atom that make up amino acids called?
carboxyl group, amino group, side chain
Which part of amino acid is unique?
The side chain or R-group
How are amino acids grouped according to physical and chemical properties of the side chain?
basing on the polarity its divided into 3types 1, amino acids with uncharged polar side chain 2, amino acids with polar side chain 3, amino acids with charged nonpolar side chain
Do amino acids have a central atom?
Yes. The alpha carbon, from where the amino group, the carboxylic group and the side chain (or R group) are attached.
What group is different between types of amino acids?
The side chain. Each proteinogenic amino acid has a hydrogen, a carboxylic acid, and an amine group on a central carbon, with a side chain that varies between the acids.
What molecule structures make up proteins?
carboxly group+amino group+side chain
