PPT-Amino Acid Metabolism (day-2)

What to Know What is the Metabolic Fate of Ammonium How is Escherichia coli Glutamine Synthetase regulated Understand general ways that organisms synthesize amino acids Know the definition of essential versus nonessential amino acids. What are amino acids?. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.. In the body, they exist as zwitterions.. Zwitterions can behave as both an acid or a base.. Today we will:. Study . the acid-base properties of amino acids, . We live in a human-centric world.. Life exists outside our box.. Subtitle. Text. Shock & Holland (2007). For example, there is life deep down on the ocean floor.. C-DEBI . (Center for Deep Energy Biosphere Investigations). Stryer. Short Course, Chapter 31. Nitrogen fixation. Bacteria. Nitrogenase.

Peptide bond formation. : . α-carboxyl group of one amino acid (with side chain R1) forms a covalent peptide bond with α-amino group of another amino acid . ( . with the side chain R2) by removal of a molecule of water. The result is : Dipeptide ( i.e. Two amino acids linked by one peptide bond). By the same way, the dipeptide can then forms a second peptide bond with a third amino acid (with side chain R3) to give . GLYCINE. Glycine is the . simplest . amino acid.
