  2. Amino acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amino_acid

    Codon–amino acids mappings may be the biological information system at the primordial origin of life on Earth. [122] While amino acids and consequently simple peptides must have formed under different experimentally probed geochemical scenarios, the transition from an abiotic world to the first life forms is to a large extent still unresolved ...

  3. Leucine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leucine

    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 ...

  4. Essential amino acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essential_amino_acid

    The distinction between essential and non-essential amino acids is somewhat unclear, as some amino acids can be produced from others. The sulfur-containing amino acids, methionine and homocysteine, can be converted into each other but neither can be synthesized de novo in humans. Likewise, cysteine can be made from homocysteine but cannot be ...

  5. Amino acid synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amino_acid_synthesis

    Amino acid biosynthesis is the set of biochemical processes (metabolic pathways) by which the amino acids are produced. The substrates for these processes are various compounds in the organism's diet or growth media. Not all organisms are able to synthesize all amino acids. For example, humans can synthesize 11 of the 20 standard amino acids ...

  6. Conservative replacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservative_replacement

    A conservative replacement (also called a conservative mutation or a conservative substitution or a homologous replacement) is an amino acid replacement in a protein that changes a given amino acid to a different amino acid with similar biochemical properties (e.g. charge, hydrophobicity and size). [1] [2]

  7. Serine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serine

    Had D amino acids been discovered in humans sooner, the glycine site on the NMDA receptor might instead be named the D-serine site. [19] Apart from central nervous system, D-serine plays a signaling role in peripheral tissues and organs such as cartilage, [20] kidney, [21] and corpus cavernosum. [22]
