What is an amino acid that posses an additional carboxyl group in side chain?
The two amino acids aspartate and glutamate each contain two carboxyl groups.
What groups are identical in amino acids?
amino and carboxyl groups
What are two function groups of amino acids?
The functional groups of an amino acid are the amino group (-NH2) and the carboxyl group (-COOH).
Which compound contains both carboxyl and amino functional groups in the same molecules?
amino acid
What is different about a carboxyl group and an amino group?
A carboxyl group (-COOH) functions as an organic acid (deprotonate to -COO-). An amino group (-NH2) may function as an organic base (protonated to -NH3+). Therefore an organic compound that has a carboxyl group is likely to have an acidic pH and an organic compound with an amino group is likely to have a basic pH (precise degree of acidity and basicity depends on the number of carbons in th backbone, the number of carboxyl or amino groups, and the presence of other functional groups).Some molecules that have both carboxyl groups and amino groups (amino acids, for example) can function as either an acid or a base under different circumstances, making them useful in buffering the pH of solutions.
What is an amino acid that posses an additional carboxyl group in side chain?
The two amino acids aspartate and glutamate each contain two carboxyl groups.
How many carboxylic acid groups does aspartate contain?
two (2)
What functional groups act as an acid?
two examples are carboxyl and hydroxyl examples are vinegar for carboxyl and phenol for hydroxyl there are many others
Does carboxyl group do covalent bonds with another carboxyl group?
No. But hydrogen bond can be formed between two carboxyl groups.
Do carbohydrates have carboxyl groups?
Yes
What groups are identical in amino acids?
amino and carboxyl groups
Do fatty acid and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
What contains amino and carboxyl groups?
protein structures Any molecule containing a carboxyl and an amino group is called an amino acid.
What are the three functional groups that are readily ionized by adjusting the pH of aqueous solutions?
carboxyl, amino, phosphate
What is acidic polysaccharides?
Acidic polysaccharidesAcidic polysaccharides are polysaccharides that contain carboxyl groups, phosphate groups and/or sulfuric ester groups.
In DNA what do phosphate groups bond to?
I,5-bis phosphate carboxyl
Amino acids always have two groups attached what are they?
A carboxyl and an amino
