Aminokwasowe
Aminokwasowe is the Polish word for amino acids. Amino acids are organic compounds that serve as the building blocks of proteins. They are characterized by a central carbon atom (the alpha-carbon) bonded to an amino group (NH2), a carboxyl group (COOH), a hydrogen atom, and a side chain (R-group). The R-group varies among different amino acids, giving them unique chemical properties.
There are twenty standard amino acids that are incorporated into proteins during translation. These are often
Amino acids play crucial roles beyond protein synthesis. They are involved in metabolic pathways, neurotransmission, and
The sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain determines the protein's three-dimensional structure and, consequently,
