Phenylalanine, is catabolized to fumarate and acetoacetate and is therefore ketogenic and glucogenic. Also threonine, isoleucine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, and tyrosine can be either ketogenic or glucogenic.

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.
What amino acid is technically not an amino acid?
proline is not an amino acid it is an imino acid
Each codon calls for a specific?
amino acid
Is phosphoric acid an amino acid?
Nope. To my knowledge there are only two acidic amino acids: Aspartic acid and glutamic acid.
What is glycogenic amino acid?
Glycogenic amino acid is an amino acid that can be converted into glycogen bodies throught glycogenesis
How ketogenic amino acid converted to glucose?
Ketogenic amino acids cannot be converted to glucose as both carbons are ultimately degrades into CO2
Is histidine a pyrimidine?
no .....it is a amino acid .though it has imidizole ring it is considered as amino acid.

Which is not a monomer a nucleotide an amino acid or a protein?
proteins can be considered to be polymer of amino acids
Essential amino acids-?
Are vital for protein synthesis and include lysine, isoluceine and valine.

What amino acid is technically not an amino acid?
proline is not an amino acid it is an imino acid
The isoelectric point of an amino acid is?
An amino acid is considered to be at its isoelectric point when the positive charges on the molecule exactly balance its negative charges. At this point, the amino acid carries no net charge and is therefore immobile in an electric field. Isoelectric points of amino acids widely vary accoriding to their side chains and polarity characteristics.
Each codon calls for a specific?
amino acid
How does the process of translation convert information?
From a nucleic acid code to an amino acid code
Is creatine a compound from amino acids?
No, not really. It is an acid, and it does contain an amino group, but it is not generally considered an amino acid per se. The amino acids we generally speak of are alpha amino acids, and creatine is NOT one of those. When you ask if it is "from amino acids", then the answer would be YES. It is made in the body from several amino acids, such as methionine, glycine and arginine.
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.
