Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, classified by structure, side chain properties, metabolic fate, and nutritional requirements. There are 20 amino acids used in human proteins, which can be categorized into essential, non-essential, and conditionally essential types. The sequence and structure of amino acids determine protein function and stability, with denaturation affecting their biological roles.
