    Thank you for making a video where you SPEAK on a subject that I searched for. So many videos on amino acids are just musical power points with no narration. I don't want to sound like a dumb tool, but when I visit RUclips it isn't because I'm itching for a good read.
    Much appreciated!

Now I have to re learn everything I thought I knew. Thank you so much. I very rarely eat meats so I take these and they energize me is the main reason I take them. They also help me to think.

    @3:14 there's a switch in the amino group of the zwitterion (H2N to H3N). In this sense, the cationic form should be understood as when the carboxyl group being protonated [as opposed to what was said @3:03]. Is this accurate?

    • @ProfessorDaveExplains
      @ProfessorDaveExplains  4 года назад +2

      the carboxyl must also remain protonated, but the amino group being protonated is what gives it the positive charge

    • @luvisacigarette8
      @luvisacigarette8 4 года назад +1

      @@ProfessorDaveExplains Thanks for the prompt response. Quick follow up: if the *amino group* being protonated is what gives it the positive charge, why is it that the difference between the cationic and the zwitterionic forms is found in the carboxyl group (COO- in zwitterion to COOH in cation)? Wouldn't the tacked on proton to the carboxyl group be the main factor yielding the positive charge?

I still don't, but now I'm aware that I also don't understand what an enzyme is, what carbohydrates are, or amino acids, genes, DNA, RNA, organic compounds, the inner works of cells. Man... I need a few dozen lives just to grasp the slightest nip.

    I was wondering why Nitrogen in the amino group has a lone pair which makes it basic. Thinking that it makes the amino acid unstable. Thank you Professor Dave, for explaining that that's how amino acids react.

    • @fishcious
      @fishcious 2 года назад +3

      Nitrogen has 4 orbitals and 5 electrons in its valence shell. Since each orbital can hold at max 2 electrons, N has one full orbital and 3 orbitals w/ 1 electron each (these are the ones that make bonds so that N 'feels like' it has a full (8 electrons) valence shell. The orbital that is already full is that lone pair and since it has a partial negative charge, that makes it slightly basic because that partial negative charge can attract and hold onto a positive H+ ion.
