Is it true that an Amino functional group is -NH2 but amino acid list it as -NH3 does it matter how many hydrogen atom exists to be a functional group?

The amine group is NH2. But to form an anino acid you also need to have a COOH group. An amino acid contains the highly nucleophilic Nitrogen lone pair. In acid conditions the NH3 is formed from the dissociation of the acid functional group coordinated onto the Nitrogen forming a zwitter ion.
