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 …

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 homodime…

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.

Textbook Question

Chapter 24, Problem 100IE

A typical amino acid with one amino group and one carboxylic acid group, such as serine, can exist in water in several ionic forms.

Suggest the forms of the amino acid at low PH and at high pH.
Amino acids generally have two pK_a values, one in the range of 2 to 3 and the other in the range of 9 to 10. Serine, for example, has pK_a values of 2.19 and 9.21. Using species such as acetic acid and ammonia as models, suggest the origin of the two pK_a values.
Glutamic acid is an amino acid that has three pK_a’s: 2.10, 4.07, and 9.47. Draw the structure of glutamic acid, and assign each pK_a to the appropriate part of the molecule.
An unknown amino acid is titrated with strong base, producing the following titration curve. Which amino acids are likely candidates for the unknown?

Chapter 24, Problem 100IE, A typical amino acid with one amino group and one carboxylic acid group, such as serine, can exist

Definition Definition Class of organic compounds that contain a carboxyl group ( - COOH ) and has a general formula R - COOH or R - CO 2 H , where R refers to the alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, or other groups. They can undergo different chemical reactions, such as acid-base reactions, esterification, and oxidation. These are essential components of living organisms, playing important roles in metabolic processes, signaling, and as pharmaceuticals.
