amino acid residue

Amino acid residue of a polypeptide or protein, distinguished from a free amino acid. Classification: - aliphatic amino acid residues: - Alanine, Ala, A - Isoleucine, Ile, I - Leucine, Leu, L - Valine, Val, V - aromatic amino acid residues: - Phenylalanine, Phe, F - Tryptophan, Trp, W - Tyrosine, Tyr, Y - sulfur residues - Cysteine, Cys, C - Methionine, Met, M - polar amino acid residues - Asparagine, Asn, N - Glutamine, Gln, Q - Serine, Ser, S - Threonine, Thr, T - acidic residues - Aspartic acid, Asp, D - Glutamic acid, Glu, E - basic residues - Arginine, Arg, R - Histidine, His, H - Lysine, Lys, K - other - Glycine, Gly, G - Proline, Pro, P
