Valine (symbol Val or V) [4] is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins. It contains an α-amino group (which is in the protonated −NH 3 + form under biological conditions), an α-carboxylic acid group (which is in the deprotonated −COO − form under biological conditions), and a side chain isopropyl group, making it a non-polar aliphatic amino acid.
Norvaline (abbreviated as Nva) is an amino acid with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 2 CH (NH 2)CO 2 H. The compound is a structural analog of valeric acid and also an isomer of the more common amino acid valine. [2] Like most other α-amino acids, norvaline is chiral. It is a white, water-soluble solid.
Two charges are present with a negative charge in the middle (red shade), and a positive charge at the ends (blue shade). In chemistry, polarity is a separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or its chemical groups having an electric dipole moment, with a negatively charged end and a positively charged end.
Leucine (symbol Leu or L) [3] is an essential amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins.Leucine is an α-amino acid, meaning it contains an α-amino group (which is in the protonated −NH 3 + form under biological conditions), an α-carboxylic acid group (which is in the deprotonated −COO − form under biological conditions), and a side chain isobutyl group, making it a non ...
Isoleucine (symbol Ile or I) [1] is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins.It contains an α-amino group (which is in the protonated −NH + 3 form under biological conditions), an α-carboxylic acid group (which is in the deprotonated −COO − form under biological conditions), and a hydrocarbon side chain with a branch (a central carbon atom bound to three other ...
Serine (symbol Ser or S) [3][4] is an α- amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins. It contains an α- amino group (which is in the protonated − NH+. form under biological conditions), and a side chain consisting of a hydroxymethyl group, classifying it as a polar amino acid.
In chemistry, a non-covalent interaction differs from a covalent bond in that it does not involve the sharing of electrons, [1] but rather involves more dispersed variations of electromagnetic interactions between molecules or within a molecule. The chemical energy released in the formation of non-covalent interactions is typically on the order ...
