Net Charge on an Amino Group.The amino acid glycine has hydrogen as its side-chain (R) group. Values of pKca= 2:36 and pKaa=9:56 have been previously reported for glycine. Superscripts c, a, and s refer to a-carboxylic acid, α-amino base, and side chain, respectively. Using these values, determine the net charge on the a-amino group of glycine at a physiologic pH of 7.2 and a pH of 3 [70].
