New cards

Valine

SC: Isopropyl group

24
New cards

Cysteine

SC: -thiol group where S atom can form disulfide bonds with other cysteine residues

25
New cards

Proline

SC: Pyrrolidine ring (side chain curls back and bonds with N atom itself, forming a ring structure)

26
New cards

Leucine

SC: Isobutyl group

27
New cards

Isoleucine

SC: Four-carbon aliphatic chain with a methyl group at c2

28
New cards

Methionine

SC: S-methyl thioether

29
New cards

Tryptophan

SC: Indole group (benzene ring fused to pyrrole ring with N atom)

30
New cards

Phenylalanine

SC: Phenyl group

31
New cards

Serine

SC: Hydroxyl group bonded to alpha carbon of the amino acid

32
New cards

Threonine

SC: Hydroxyl group attached to beta carbon

33
New cards

Asparagine

SC: Carboxamide group (this functional group consists of a carbonyl group bonded to an amine group)

34
New cards

Glutamine

SC: Carbamoyl group (simple amide functional group)

35
New cards

Lysine

SC: Four-carbon aliphatic chain ending with an amine group

36
New cards

Arginine

SC: Guanidinium group (terminal end of the chain is capped with a guanidino group that contains 3 N atoms arranged in planar fashion

37
New cards

Histidine

SC: Imidazole ring (5 membered aromatic ring)

38
New cards

Aspartic acid

CH2COOH side chain where carboxylic group is attached to C2 of the side chain

39
New cards

Glutamic acid (Glutamate)

Five-carbon chain with carboxylic group at the end

40
New cards

Tyrosine

SC: Phenol group with a hydroxyl group attached to one of the carbon atoms in the ring
