About this document

Amino Acids: Titration Curves & pI by Vasile Cuprian is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document discusses titration curves of amino acids and how they can be grouped based on their side chain categories. While distinguishing hydrophobic amino acids using titration is problematic except for tyrosine, the isoelectric point of amino acids is related to the pKa values of their functional groups. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and 20 standard amino acids are incorporated during protein translation, with 2 additional non-standard amino acids selenocysteine and pyrrolysine incor
