What are two functional groups found in every amino acid?

Answered by admin @



An amino acid is a molecule that contains two functional groups , an amine and acarboxylic acid , as shown in Figure 1. In this illustration there is an additional group called the side chain, designated with an R. The variation seen in naturally occurring amino acids arises from differences in this side chain.
