Amino Acids The Building Blocks of Protein carry out various biological functions capacity to polymerize protein linear heteropolymers of a amino acids useful acid base properties varied physical properties Varied chemical functionality as as as a i a im Tano as peptides Protein AMINO acids Share many features only differing at the R substituent group Three common functional groups attached to the a carbon a carbon always has four substituents and is tetrahedral MAGI 1pA mg fM y All amino acids except proline have an acidic carboxyl group connected to the a carbon a basic amino group connected to the a carbon an A hydrogen connected to the a carbon The fourth substituent R group is unique Exception Glycine the simplest amino acid R group IS hydrogen H H E X f 2N O Glycine Ely E
