Types of Amino Acids
Nonpolar R = H, CH3, alkyl groups, aromatic
OPolar ll
R = –CH2OH, –CH2SH, –CH2C–NH2,
(polar groups with –O-, -SH, -N-)
Polar/Acidic
R = –CH2COOH, or -COOH
Polar/ Basic
R = –CH2CH2NH2

Essential Amino Acids
• 10 amino acids not synthesized by the body
• arg, his, ile, leu, lys, met, phe, thr, trp, val
