Is melanin a protein?
I screwed up-- the first person had it right. Here's their answer: "A protein is composed of several amino acids chained together - so no melanin is not a protein. Melanin is formed from the amino acid Tyrosine and is NOT a chain of amino acids thus it is not a protein nor is it a amino acid."
How many amino acid required for synthesis of melanin?
Tyrosine
Can tryosine is a aliphatic amino acid?
aromatic amino acid
What is smaller amino acid protein dipeptide or polypeptide?

In transamination the amino group of an amino acid is?

What is the substance that makes your hair and your skin have its pigment?
Melanin. It is found in most organisms. In animals melanin is made of the amino acid tyrosine.
Where can you get melanin?
is formed as part of the process of metabolizing an amino acid called tyrosine. In the skin, melanin is formed by cells called melanocytes. Certain medical conditions, such as albinism, are associated with the lack of melanin.

What amino acid is technically not an amino acid?
proline is not an amino acid it is an imino acid
Is Chickpeas is better for Vitiligo?
Chickpeas is rich of Amino acid. And Amino acid support the stimulation and reproduction of melanocytes skin cells. As melanocytes are special skin cells, which produce skin pigmenting substance melanin. And these are melanocytes whose deficiency in skin cause white spots of vitiligo.
Each codon calls for a specific?
amino acid
How does the process of translation convert information?
From a nucleic acid code to an amino acid code
What is a beta-amino acid?
A beta-amino acid is an amino acid which has the amino and carboxylic functional groups attached to adjacent carbon atoms.
Is phosphoric acid an amino acid?
Nope. To my knowledge there are only two acidic amino acids: Aspartic acid and glutamic acid.
What is glycogenic amino acid?
Glycogenic amino acid is an amino acid that can be converted into glycogen bodies throught glycogenesis
