What distinguishes one amino acid from another amino acid?
Their side group makes them unique, they also contain nitrogen which makes them different from carbs and fats.
Type of acid that makes up protiens?
amino acids
Is cysteine considered a hydrophobic amino acid?
No, cysteine is not considered a hydrophobic amino acid. It contains a thiol group which makes it more hydrophilic.
What monomer makes up a polypeptide?
Amino acids are the monomers that make up a polypeptide chain. Each amino acid has an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom, and a variable side chain, which gives each amino acid its unique properties.

In general what makes one kind of amino acid different from other amino acids?
the side group
Why is glutamic acid an acidic amino acid and lysine a basic amino acid?
Glutamic acid has a carboxylic acid (COO-) group on the gamma carbon of the amino acid. The carboxylic acid group carries a negative charge and is considered acidic. Lysine has a amino group (NH3+) on the zeta carbon of the amino acid. The positively charged group on the terminal carbon atom makes it an basic amino acid.
The isoelectric point of an amino acid is?
The isoelectric point of an amino acid is the pH at which the amino acid carries no net charge. It is the pH at which the amino acid exists in its zwitterionic form, with equal numbers of positive and negative charges.
What part of an amino acid that makes it different from other amino acids?
The remainder group or R Group. An amino acid is constituted by the amine group, the carboxylic acid group, and the side chain (AKA Remainder group). It's the chemistry of the side chain that makes an amino acid unique from the other amino acids.
The body normally makes tyrosine from the essential amino acid?
Phenylalanine.
What makes proteins different from each other?
their amino acid sequence
What makes up a code for amino acid?
3 bases, a codon.
