Amino acids - alpha carbon of amino acids contains amine group, carboxyl group and side chain group. Based on the side chain group of amino acids, it can be charged polar, uncharged polar and non-polar. number of amino acids exist in nature but 22 amino acids are coded by genetic code and 20 common amino acids are present. Carboxyl group of amino acid 1 linked with amine group of amino acid 2 by peptide/amide bond with release of water molecule.
