What group do amino acids always contain?
The amino acids are distinguished by the R groups which determines what amino acid it is.
Are amino acids only represented by one codon?

Why you can not produce amino acids after birth?
Untrue. You continue to produce amino acids throughout your entire life. Amino Acids are the single links in producing protein chains, thus you always need to make more. The thing that you can never change is your DNA which codes for the makeup of Amino Acids.
