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.
What contains both a carboxyl group and an amino group?
An amino group and an R group
In the genetic code a group of three nitrogen bases codes for a?
amino acid
Amino acids is made up of what?
Proteins and enzymes
What general name is given to the part of the amino acids that is a variable?
The R-group (side-chain), is what gives each amino acid its unique properties and affects how a protein folds.
What is the variable of acid?
The variable of amino acid is called the R group.
What is the monomer of a polymer?
The monomer is the individual amino acid following the amino acid assignation (NH2CHCOOHR) where the R group determines which amino acid it is - and is the variable unit.
What is the monomer of the polymer?
The monomer is the individual amino acid following the amino acid assignation (NH2CHCOOHR) where the R group determines which amino acid it is - and is the variable unit.
Why amino acid called alpha amino acid?
The variable R group of each amino acid is attached to the carbon alpha to, or immediately adjacent to, the carbon bearing the carboxylic acid functionality.
What is the name given to an amino acid when added to a dipetide?
When two amino acids are linked with a peptide bond it is called a dipeptide, when the third amino acid come and joins them it will be then a tripeptide.
Formula of amino acid?
(NH2)-(RCH)-(COOH) = (amino group)-(central carbon + hydrogen + variable side group)-(carboxyl group)
In general what makes one kind of amino acid different from other amino acids?
the side group

What is the monomer of a protein polymer?
The monomers of proteins are known as amino acids....A further explanation:Do not confuse amino acids with nucleic acids. Nucleic acids are DNA and RNA and are another one of the BIG 4 macromolecules that are needed to survive.The 4 are:Carbohydrates (monomer: monosaccaride)Proteins (monomer: amino acids)Lipids (monomer: fatty acids)Nucleic Acids (monomer: nucleotides)
What amino acid is technically not an amino acid?
proline is not an amino acid it is an imino acid
What is amina acid?
Did you mean: amino acid, this is a general name for hydrocarbon chain molecules with at least one amino group (-NH2) and one carboxyl group (-COOH). There are up to 20 different amino acid monomers present in proteins.
