Neutral Amino Acids
Amino acids which do not have any charge on them are neutral amino acids.
Globular Protein
The globular proteins refer to the shape of protein specifically spherical in nature apart from spherical form fibrous, disordered and membrane-bound proteins exist. These globular proteins are miscible in water and form a colloidal solution rather than other types which might not exhibit solubility. Many classes of the fold are found in globular proteins, which render them a sphere shape. Globular fold containing proteins usually are referred to by the term globin.
Dimer
Dimers are basic organic compounds, which are derivates of oligomers. It is formed by the combination of two monomers which could potentially be strong or weak and in most cases covalent or intermolecular in nature. Identical monomers are called homodimer, the non-identical dimers are called heterodimer. The method by which dimers are formed is known as “dimerization”.
Dipeptide
A dipeptide is considered a mixture of two distinct amino acids. Since the amino acids are distinct, based on their composition, two dipeptide's isomers can be produced. Various dipeptides are biologically essential and are therefore crucial to industry.

![The image displays the molecular structure of Ferrichrome, a siderophore.
### Key Features of the Structure:
- **Central Iron (Fe) Ion**: The iron ion (Fe) is at the center of the structure, crucial for its function in transporting iron.
- **Hexadentate Coordination**: The iron ion is coordinated by six donor atoms, which are nitrogen and oxygen atoms from its ligands.
- **Ligands**: Ferrichrome is composed of three molecules of hydroxamate, which form stable chelate complexes with the iron ion.
- **Sulfur Atoms**: The structure includes sulfur atoms that are part of the ligand backbone, linking to peptide chains.
### Function:
Ferrichrome is primarily known for its role in microbial iron transport. It effectively binds and solubilizes iron, facilitating its uptake into cells, particularly in environments where iron is scarce. Siderophores like ferrichrome are essential for the survival of many microorganisms.
This detailed understanding of ferrichrome's molecular structure is crucial for studies in microbiology and biochemistry, especially those concerning microbial nutrient acquisition and iron metabolism.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Ff1af30ef-ee48-4eef-b80a-e9c17ca1248a%2Ff5bcae36-f515-48fb-85fe-3aa6d7bed4ce%2Fqg039io_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
