Assume that a particular amino acid has an isoelectric point of 6.0. In a solution at pH 1.0, which of the following species will predominate ?

An amino acid having isoelectric point below 7 ( at 25^(@)C ) , when kept in a alkaline medium present in an electric field will show migration towrds -

An amino acid having isoelectric point below 7 ( at 25^(@)C ) , when kept in a alkaline medium present in an electric field will show migration towards -

How many amino acids exist in nature?

Which of the following are correct with reference to amino acids? a. Amphoteric in nature. b. Are substituted methane molecules. c. Serine is an alcoholic amino acid. d. Amino acids never exist in zwitterionic form at any stage in living cells. e. A dipeptide comprises of two peptide bonds between amino acids.

An amino acid is characterized by two pKa values the one corresponding to the more acidic site is designated as pKa_1 and the other corresponding to the less acidic site is designated as pKa_2 The isoelectric point also called isoionic point (pI) is the pH at which concentration of zwitter ion is maximum . pI is the average of pKa_1 and pKa_2 .Generally the value of pI is slightly less than 7. some amino acids have side chain with acidic or basic groups.These amino acids have pKa_3 value also for the side chain.Acidic amino acid have acidic side chains and basic amino acids have basic side chains . pI for acidic amino acid is average of pKa_1 and pKa_3 .pI for basic amino acid is the average of pKa_2 and pKa_3 . {:(S.NO,"Amino acid",p^(Ka1),p^(Ka2),p^(Ka3)("side chain")),(I,"Aspartic acid",1.88,9.6,3.65),(II,"Glutamic acid",2.19,9.67,4.25),(III,"Lysine",2.18,8.95,10.53),(IV,"Arginine",2.17,9.04,12.48):} In the table given above the acidic amino acids are

The iso-electric point of the given amino acid is,
