Amino acids biochemistry notes

Here are the tricks for how to memorize 20 amino acids. MCATs are notoriously difficult and stressful, so if you can help yourself file away the information you need on the aminos in general, like which are polar and nonpolar, which are essential and nonessential, plus their structures and which have electrically charged side chains, you’re that much closer to passing your exam.

On Studocu you find all the lecture notes, summaries and study guides you need to pass your exams with better grades.

This is the ultimate amino-acid file for your iPad. You can lasso and change the colours of the amino acids to your liking. Multiple options are given in the file to test yourself, including drawing from memory and flashcards. One page with the carbon skeleton is given so you can focus on the part of the amino acid that makes it different. You can also print the file. This is perfect for medical students, nursing students, biochemistry students, biology students and biomedical science…

Amino Acids Groups

The genetic code, in DNA letters (T instead of U), and containing amino acids in three representations: full name, 3-letter abbreviation, and 1-letter. Drawn in Inkscape. How to read the genetic code: start from the center circle and go outwards. So, if the gene has an AGC, that means amino acid serine. A CGA means arginine. And three of the combinations are stop codons, which don't give any amino acid: TAA, TAG, and TGA.
