just wanted to share a way of memorising these amino acids that i found a while ago. 1) first memorise the 5 well known aliphatic amino acids in order of complexity: Glycine, Alanine, Valine, Leucine and then Isoleucine. 2) now, remember the sequence 4-3-2-1 and observe this sequence down the list in the following: Lysine= -(CH2)4-NH2 Arginine= -(CH2)3-NH-C(NH2)=NH Methionine= -(CH2)2-S-CH3 Cysteine= -(CH2)-SH
3) Also, recall the "kinda-alcohol duplicates" of Methionine and Cysteine Threonine= -CH(OH)-CH3 Serine= -(CH2)-OH 4) now, observe how "A" comes wayy before "G" in english alphabet and how "1" comes before "2" Aspartic Acid= -(CH2)-COOH Glutamic Acid= -(CH2)2-COOH Asparagine= -(CH2)-CONH2 Glutamine= -(CH2)2-CONH2 5) Now, we get down the aromatic amino acids. -CH2-(C6H5)= Phenyl Alanine Add an -(OH) group to the para position, and we have =Tyrosine
Now, instead of a benzene ring, attach a -(benzopyrrole) to alanine and, we have= Tryptophan If you attach an -(imidazole) to alanine, we get= Histidine 6) The last one is the only secondary amino acid, which is Proline and easy to draw
Wow, you are literally the only reason I got an A in Organic 1&2. And now you’re posting Biochem videos, while I’m taking the class.... you are such a blessing!!! Thank you!
Im a pharmaceutical sciences student and your videos are my life saver in all my majors ! Like do you have any idea how you help someone reach their dreams 😭😭😭😭 i will owe you forever and when i have enough bucks i'll gladly be a patron 💞
There's no reason to hate chemistry with this channel. Hope you can also tackle courses like pharmacology in the future. I just wanna say I'm so grateful from the bottom of my hypothalamus that I've discovered this channel. Most channels require textbook reading to understand the topic. This channel doesn't require any intensive book reading. The information are so condensed (90% of a particular topic found in a textbook) and the explanations are just RIDICULOUSLY simple like my textbooks say I'm dumb but this channel makes me a genius lol Keep up the great work. If I can subscribe for a thousand times, I wouldn't hesitate to give all that to this channel 🙌
Thank you! I graduated in 1978 and never want to forget what I studied! I wish I had this video back then. Reading "The Gene" by Siddhartha Mukherjee, great book! Learning about the DNA.
This is fantastic, thank you so much! Clear images, excellent explanations, and no crazy gimmicks. I'm writing the MCAT next month and this video has been very helpful. :)
God bless you You’ve helped me in my college studies and now I’m studying pharmacy in uni I still follow your teachings You are a real gem I do appreciate what you do please keep it up 👍🏼
This is highlu relevant. Please also post a video on complete review of all biologically important micromulucles - nucleic acid, amino acids, carbs and glucose.
In dicember when I graduate i need to know how to send you my thank you letter. Almost all my natural science classes I've studied with you. God bless you man.
Hey OCT so I just to say like so many others, you're so awesome! You've saved me in organic and physics, I was wondering, do you have any or plan to put up any Biochem videos? I'm starting that this semester in about two weeks
I don't have any biochemistry classes (yet), but this video already helped me learn the amino acids structure and names. I've heard that many biochem students don't know them all 20, so i thought, "How bad could it be?" After this, it was not that bad. (I think im gonna learn more about biochem in this channel than in my future college courses)
Thank you so much for this! I was scratching my head an entire night; the order of the amino acids in my lecture notes are just alphabetical according to the one letter codes which doesn't make any sense for remembering the structures. I love how you ordered them so its easier to remember which ones contain a similar component etc ◡̈
So it's not memorising. It's learning. And what happened to the amino group being NH2, and the carboxylic acid group being COOH? You might want to explain why the NH2 is written as NH3+ and why the CA group is written as COO- to ensure your audience understands.
All aminoacids are polar: the alfa-aminogroup is the + pole and the alfa-carboxylic group is the - pole: thus a dipole! What is non-polar is the R group, the lateral chain for example the lateral chain of Ala is methyl, so as the difference in electronegativity of C and H is small, and also the symmetry of the radical, it doesn't make a dipole. The student, teachers, professors should always put enphasis that the A.A.'s classification refers to their lateral chain.
Hey Just want to say thanks for everything you do. Your vids are amazing! I have watched the organic chemistry video's for my exam and thanks to you I got a 15/20 for the organic chemistry exam! Thanks for the help!!!
Thank u so much sir I just entered 200lvl bch and I founded these structures kind of rigorous but u made it so easy for me may God continue to bless u brother looking forward to getting an A tho 😅⭐
OK wow. I just watched this video once. And I'm already doing way better on amino acid questions. Thank you for a very helpful video! Fingers crossed I ace the MCAT lol

2) now, remember the sequence 4-3-2-1 and observe this sequence down the list in the following:
Lysine= -(CH2)4-NH2

Methionine= -(CH2)2-S-CH3
Cysteine= -(CH2)-SH
3) Also, recall the "kinda-alcohol duplicates" of Methionine and Cysteine
Threonine= -CH(OH)-CH3
Serine= -(CH2)-OH
4) now, observe how "A" comes wayy before "G" in english alphabet and how "1" comes before "2"
Aspartic Acid= -(CH2)-COOH
Glutamic Acid= -(CH2)2-COOH
Asparagine= -(CH2)-CONH2
Glutamine= -(CH2)2-CONH2
5) Now, we get down the aromatic amino acids.
-CH2-(C6H5)= Phenyl Alanine
Add an -(OH) group to the para position, and we have =Tyrosine
Now, instead of a benzene ring, attach a -(benzopyrrole) to alanine and,

Your hypothalamus got really big then! Mine will get even bigger as I am venturing in biochem this fall. This is gonna be *epicalatically* epic.
I’m reading your comment and the hypothalamus portion has me ded! Lol
The timing of this video is gold!
That's strange, he's timing is always on point xD

This was AMAZING! I am a first quarter Chiropractic student and Biochemistry will be much easier because of you! LOL. Thanks!
You're the only reason I have passed any of my science or math classes. Thank you so much
You're a life saver🥺
Thank youuuuuu
This is helping us the biochemistry students
Organic Chemistry Tutor, I hope you know I love you.
So it's not memorising. It's learning.
And what happened to the amino group being NH2, and the carboxylic acid group being COOH?
You might want to explain why the NH2 is written as NH3+ and why the CA group is written as COO- to ensure your audience understands.
it was the easiest way to remember thanx a lot

Why are your exams only worth 20 points lol.
@@freddymendoza9393 The exams are normally like 70 - 80 points and then it's got set back to 20
Well put together. I certainly can memorize them now. Thanks a lot
Im korean, I really thanks for your lecture.
감사합니다.
Nice.
grateful here.still useful content even now
