Amino acids make up proteins, by forming chains.
Alpha carbon atoms.
carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen
amino acids make proteins and an enzyme is a protein so......
The monomers of proteins are amino acids.
Deletion of just one nucleotide in a protein-coding part of a gene will cause a "frameshift mutation." Since the nucleotides are read in groups of three (codons) along the gene, the groupings will change and the protein that results is likely to be completely different.
Proteins are made up of amino acids. The bond between amino acids is called a peptide bond, which occurs between the carbon atom of the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the nitrogen atom of the amino group of another amino acid. Please see the related link to see an illustration of two amino acids bonding to form a peptide bond.
Answer 1The 20 amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.Answer 2You might consider it a protein because it makes up a protein, but it is not actually a protein.
amino acids
amino acids
3 bases, a codon.
Amino acid monomers make up a polypeptide chain which folds into it's particular shape, based on amino acid sequences, to make a protein
an amino acid
Alanine is not a polypeptide. It's an amino acid.
Amino acid. (also its spelt polypeptide)
Amino acids are the building blocks of a protein. Fatty acid is involved in formation of fats. Fatty acid and glycerol are two things that makes up a fat molecule.

A codon of nucleotides codes for an amino acid. The combination of nucleotides in a codon determines the amino acid the codon makes.
Their side group makes them unique, they also contain nitrogen which makes them different from carbs and fats.
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.
