Chapter 21, Problem 21.65P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structures of amino acid asparagine and serine with possible hydrogen bonding between the two side chains of the amino acids should be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Proteins are biomolecules that are composed of certain monomer units such as amino acids. These are carboxylic acids with one amino group bonded on the alpha-C atom of the molecule.

These amino acids involve in condensation process to form peptides and polypeptides which further form complex protein molecules. Amino acids are the organic molecules with both ${\text{–NH}}_{\text{2}}$ and $\text{–COOH}$ groups' functional groups bonded on the same C atom of the molecule.
