Physical properties a Amino acids are colorless crystalline substances, highly soluble in water and slightly soluble in organic solvents. Many of them have a sweet taste. They have high densities and exceptionally high melting (often decomposition) temperatures.

Chemical properties All amino acids are amphoteric compounds; they can exhibit both acidic properties due to the presence of a carboxyl group in their molecules - COOH, and basic properties due to the amino group - NH 2. Solutions of amino acids in water have the properties of buffer solutions, i.e. are in a state of internal salts. Amino acids can usually undergo all the reactions characteristic of carboxylic acids and amines. An important feature of amino acids is their ability to polycondensate (the process of polymer synthesis), leading to the formation of polyamides, including peptides, proteins, nylon, and nylon.

Obtaining Most amino acids can be obtained through protein hydrolysis or as a result of chemical reactions:

Optical isomerism All α-amino acids found in living organisms, except glycine, contain an asymmetric carbon atom (threonine and isoleucine contain two asymmetric atoms) and have optical activity. Almost all naturally occurring α-amino acids are L-form, and only L-amino acids are included in proteins synthesized on ribosomes.

Classification Nonessential amino acids are amino acids that can enter our body with protein foods or be formed in the body from other amino acids. Essential amino acids are those amino acids that our body cannot produce on its own; they must be supplied with protein foods.

Significance Amino acids are the main “building material” for the synthesis of specific tissue proteins, enzymes, peptide hormones and other physiologically active compounds. In addition to the fact that amino acids form proteins, some of them: Act as neurotransmitters or are their precursors. Neurotransmitters are chemicals that transmit nerve impulses from one nerve cell to another. Thus, some amino acids are essential for normal brain function. Amino acids ensure that vitamins and minerals adequately perform their functions. Some amino acids directly provide energy to muscle tissue.

(aminocarboxylic acids), organic compounds whose molecule simultaneously contains carboxyl and amine groups. They act as monomers in the construction of protein molecules. Colorless crystalline substances, soluble in water. Many have a sweet taste. Only 20 amino acids are involved in protein synthesis.

Classification options

amino acids:

Depending on the position of the amino group

(alpha amino acids, beta amino acids)

According to the configuration of the molecule, there are L and D isomers.

According to optical activity in relation to the plane of polarization.

By participation in protein synthesis (proteinogenic and non-proteinogenic).

According to the structure of the side radical.

According to acid-base properties.

As necessary for the body (replaceable, irreplaceable)

All proteinogenic amino acids are alpha amino acids.

Classification of amino acids (by side radical):

Essential: leucine (LEU, L),

isoleucine (ILE, J), valine (VAL, V), phenylalanine (PEN, F), tryptophan (TRI, W), threonine (TRE, T), lysine (LYS,

methionine (MET,M).

Replaceable ones include:

amino acids whose carbon skeleton

is formed in metabolic reactions and is capable of receiving an amino group to form an amino acid.

Conditionally replaceable. Their synthesis is underway, not in

sufficient quantity, especially in children.

Individual representatives of amino acids and their properties.

Aliphatic:

Glycine (GLY), or glycocol, aminoacetic acid. The only one that is optically inactive. Participates in protein synthesis. Its atoms are part of nucleotides, heme and the tripeptide glutathione.

Alanine (ALA), aminocaproic acid. Used for glucose synthesis.

Valine (VAL), leucine (LEU), isoleucine (ILE) - play an important role in the formation of protein molecules due to their pronounced hydrophobic properties.

Methionine (MET) - performs mobile donor function

methyl group required

The -OH group easily interacts with phosphoric acid, which is sometimes necessary to change the functional activity of proteins. Serine (SER),

threonine (TPE).

Dicarboxylic (containing an additional –COOH group)

Glutamic (GLU), aspartic (ASP). Thanks -COOH these acids promote ionic interaction, impart charge to the protein molecule, and can form amides.

Amides of dicarboxylic acids– glutamine (GLY), asparagine (ASN), lysine (LYS), arginine (ARG) - are involved in the neutralization and transport of ammonia.

Cyclic ones have a ring in their radical.

Phenylalanine (PEN), tyrosine (TYR) - involved in the formation of adrenaline and thyroxine. Tryptophan (TRI) - used for the synthesis of vitamin PP, serotornine, pineal gland hormones. Histidine (HIS) - participates in the formation of histamine, which regulates capillary permeability, manifests its effect in allergies.

(proteios, Greek - first) Proteins (proteins, polypeptides) high-molecular organic substances consisting of α-amino acids connected in a chain by a peptide bond. In living organisms, the amino acid composition of proteins is determined by the genetic code. α-Amino acids - monomers for protein synthesis More than 300 amino acids have been found in nature, but only 20 (α-amino acids) are found in proteins.

Organic chemistry, p. 87)


Acid-base properties of amino acids Bipolar ions, zwitterions High melting point. (WITH); soluble in water; insoluble in non-polar organic solvents. Amino acids are amphoteric compounds. Isoelectric point is the pH value of the environment at which the amino acid exists predominantly in the form of a zwitterion.










Proteins Primary structure - sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain Secondary structure - local ordering of a fragment of a polypeptide chain, stabilized by hydrogen bonds Tertiary structure - spatial structure of a polypeptide chain (covalent, ionic bonds, hydrophilic-hydrophobic interactions) Quaternary structure - mutual arrangement of several polypeptide chains as part of a single protein complex


Three-dimensional structure of the hemoglobin molecule. Soluble in water or aqueous solutions of acids, bases, salts. Globular proteins include enzymes, immunoglobulins, transport and regulatory hormones, antibodies, egg albumin, hemoglobin, fibrinogen, fibrin Globular proteins - polypeptide chains are tightly folded into compact spherical structures (globules) Fibrillar proteins - polypeptide chains having an elongated thread-like structure Insoluble in water. Fibrillar proteins include α-keratins, collagen, fibroin.


Amines are organic compounds that are derivatives of ammonia, in the molecule of which one, two or three hydrogen atoms are replaced by hydrocarbon radicals. According to the number of substituted hydrogen atoms, primary, (one hydrogen atom is substituted), secondary (two of three hydrogen atoms are substituted) and tertiary (three of three hydrogen atoms are substituted) amines are distinguished, respectively.




Sulfonamide preparations (sulfonamides) - these include derivatives of sulfanilic acid, in finished form they are white or slightly yellowish odorless and tasteless powders, poorly soluble in water. Their antimicrobial effect is mainly due to the fact that they disrupt the process of microbes obtaining the “growth” factors necessary for their life and development - folic acid and other substances. Taking sulfonamides in insufficient doses or stopping treatment too early can lead to the emergence of resistant strains of pathogens that are not susceptible to further action of sulfonamides.




Quinoline Derivatives of quinoline are used in medicine (plasmocide, quinine). plasmacidquinine Quinine - has antipyretic and analgesic properties, as well as a pronounced effect against malarial plasmodia. Plasmocid synthetic antimalarial drug


A MINO ACIDS Amino acids (aminocarboxylic acids) are organic compounds whose molecule simultaneously contains carboxyl and amine groups. Amino acids can be considered as derivatives of carboxylic acids in which one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced by amine groups.


APPLICATION IN MEDICINE. Amino acids are widely used in modern pharmacology. Being not only structural elements of proteins and other endogenous compounds, they are of great functional importance. Some of them act as neurotransmitter substances. Some amino acids have found independent use as medicines.


Amino acids are also used as parenteral nutrition for patients, that is, bypassing the gastrointestinal tract, with diseases of the digestive and other organs; and also for the treatment of liver diseases, anemia, burns (methionine), stomach ulcers (histidine), and neuropsychiatric diseases (glutamic acid, etc.). Amino acids are used in animal husbandry and veterinary medicine for the nutrition and treatment of animals, as well as in the microbiological, medical and food industries.


It is important to take amino acids with cofactors, which are usually vitamins, mineral salts or other nutrients that help amino acids through metabolic processes in the human body. It is also important to take amino acids as a whole, rather than just one amino acid, because amino acids involve complex metabolic pathways that require different cofactors and other amino acids.
