Chapter 5.5, Problem 12P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
R and s configuration is to be assigned to the following amino acid, methionine.
Concept introduction:
Methionine is one of two amino acids that contain the element sulphur. The chemical formula of methionine is C5H11NO2S. In general, all amino acids have the same structure: an amino group attached to hydrogen, a carboxyl group and a side chain group, denoted by 'R' via a central carbon.
