What are the four amino acids called?

There are actually 20 different amino acids, each one distinct in an R-group side chain. Did you mean what are the four parts of amino acids called? Because if so, they would be an amine (N) terminus (The NH2), carboxyl (C) terminus (The COOH), an H group of just a hydrogen atom, and an R group which is unique for each amino acid and identifies it from other amino acids. These four groups are bound to a central carbon atom. H O H\ / // N--C---C H/ \ \ R OH


The difference between amino acids are in the?

In the R group which may be H, CH3 , C2H5, etc.

What is the difference between the amino acids?

Amino Acids have the following structure: R | | | H2N----------C----------COOH | | H There are bonds between each element/goup and the R and H should be bonded to the Carbon The difference between each amino acid lies in the variable "R" group that you see at the top. Each amino acid has a different combination of elements that make it unique from the others

What is the R-group of Alanine?

An R group is the chemical group attached to the alpha carbon in an amino acid. In proteins all amino acids have the same basic structure and vary only in their R group. There are 20 standard amino acids found in proteins, which all have different R groups. For example an amino acids with Hydrogen from its R group is glycine, and one carbon with 3 hydrogens (a methyl group) is the R group for alanine.


Why is the R group in amino acids?

The R group in an amino acid are what make that amino acid unique.


Do all amino acids have R groups that are polar?

Yes, all amino acids have the same basic composition, though the r-groups causes the variation. There are 20 different amino acids.
