R represent a Group. there are 20 naturally occurring amino acids they all are the same except for their R group. some might have a methly or some might be more complex. the R is drawn to save time and space when doing a reaction where the R group is untouched.
The R group is an organic substituent in amino acids, different for each amino acid.
In organic chemistry R represents an alkyl group. This is the same case in amino acids .
Rchnh2cooh
NH2CHRCOOH
Glycine.
The R group in an amino acid are what make that amino acid unique.
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.
An amino group and an R group
The "R" group is different in different kinds of amino acids. The "R" group can be a number of different molecules that are attached to the alpha carbon.

The R group in an amino acid are what make that amino acid unique.
The R group in an amino acid are what make that amino acid unique.
The amino acids are distinguished by the R groups which determines what amino acid it is.
The "R" group
lanthionine
The R-group in the phenylalanine amino acid is: CH2-benzene ring
Glycine is the simplest common amino acid. It is characterized by the presence of a hydrogen atom as its R-group.
The variable of amino acid is called the R group.
The R groups of amino acids cause the difference in amino acid. The R group is joined at the alpha carbon of amino acid. There are four group joined at one carbon, viz. an acid group --COOH, and an amino group --NH3, one hydrogen and a functional group (R group). Except R group all the groups are same in every amino acid. So on the basis of R group i.e., functional group, there occur differences EITHER it is polar or non-polar nature OR acidity or basicty.
The side chain or R-group
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.
