Amino acids are small organic molecules that play several significant roles in living organisms.: They are the
principal building blocks of proteins.
They serve as precursors for many biologically active molecules, such as neurotransmitters, local mediators , energy-related metabolites the oxygen-binding molecule ‘heme‘, and DNA bases called purines.
They serve as an energy source during prolonged fasting, diabetes, and when the diet is rich in proteins.
Some amino acids act as regulators of gene expression and cellular signaling. This affect multiple physiological processes that are related to growth, maintenance, reproduction and immunity.
The brief classification, types, physical properties, chemical properties, mucopolysaccherides type, disorders related to GAG.
the Topic covered with the interest of MBBS, BDS, BPT, Nursing, Bsc and MSc Biochemistry and MLT students

Amino acids are organic compounds that contain amino (–NH2) and carboxyl (–COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid. The key elements of an amino acid are carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), and nitrogen (N), although other elements are found in the side chains of certain amino acids. As many as 300 amino acids are found in nature but only 20 amino acids are standard as they are coded by genes (genetic codes) .A peptide bond is a special type of amide bond formed between two molecules where an α-carboxyl group of one molecule reacts with the α-amino group of another molecule releasing a water molecule . CLASSIFICATION OF AMINO ACIDS - On the basis of R-group On the basis of Polarity , On the basis of Nutritional requirement
On the basis of Catabolism
This Course is included in the syllabus of Bachelor in Science Agriculture level study in Tribhuvan University. The course belongs to 1h lecture.This slide include general introduction of amino acid. It describes about structure, function , type and role of amino acid.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
How to Give Better Lectures: Some Tips for Doctors
Amino acids, peptides & proteins
1.
2. Amino acids,Peptides& Proteins
PrinciplesofBiochemistryBy Albert-Leningher Chap:03
Introduction
• Proteins are the most abundant biological macromolecules, occurring in all cells and all
parts of cells
• Great variety;
– Thousands of different kinds
– Ranging in size from relatively small peptides to huge polymers
• Enormous diversity of biological functions
• The most important final products of the information pathways
3. Amino Acids
• Proteins are polymers of amino acids each residue joined to its neighbor by covalent bond
• Twenty different amino acids are commonly found in proteins
• The first to be discovered was asparagine, in 1806
• The last of the 20 to be found, threonine, in 1938
• All the amino acids have trivial or common names, derived from the source from which
they were first isolated
– Asparagine was first found in asparagus
– Glutamate in wheat gluten
– Tyrosine was first isolated from cheese
• In addition to 20 amino acids there are many less common ones, present in living
organisms but not as constituents of proteins
Structural Features of A.A
• A.A have a carboxyl groupand an aminogroup bondedtothe same carbon atom
• They differ from each other in their side chains, or R groups, which vary in:
– Structure
– Size
– Electric charge
– Solubility of the amino acids in water
• All Amino acids are essentially α-amino acids:
alpha carbon (IUPAC #2 position)
H2N – C – COOH
|
R
• When R is not H, the alpha carbon is asymetric, giving rise to isomers
4. • Only L-amino acids are constituents of proteins
Classification of A.A
(Based on R group) These aminoacidscontaina varietyof differentfunctional groups:
• Alcohols (R-OH)
• Phenols (Ph-OH)
• Carboxylic acids (R-COOH)
• Thiols (R-SH)
• Amines (R-NH2)
• And others….
7. Classification of A.A
(Based on functions )
• Essential Amino Acids:
– Isoleucine
– Leucine
– Lysine
– Methionine
– Phenylalanine
– Threonine
– Tryptophan
– Valine
– Arginine
– Histidine
• Non-essential A.A
– ??????
Classification of A.A
(Uncommon amino acids )
• Some 300 additional amino acids have been found in cells with a variety of functions but are not
constituents of proteins
• Ornithine and citrulline,which are not found in proteins, are intermediates in the biosynthesis
of arginine and in the urea cycl
• Selenocysteine is a constituent of just a few known proteins
8. • Another important uncommon amino acid is -carboxyglutamate, found in the bloodclotting
protein prothrombin and in certain other proteins that bind Ca+2 as part of their biological
function
Properties of A.A
• Carboxylic acids are donating a proton in aqueous solution while Amino groups function
as bases, accepting a proton
• At low pH, proton concentration [H+]is high, both amines and carboxylic acids are
protonated (-NH3
+ & -COOH)
• At high pH, proton concentration is low, both amines and carboxylic acids are
deprotonated (-NH2 &-COO-)
• At neutral pH, amines are protonated (-NH3
+) and carboxylates are deprotonated (-COO-)
• Zwitter Ions:Ions bearing two charges were named zwitter ions by German scientists; the
name still applies today, especially for amino acids at neutral pH:
+H3N – CH2 – COO-
• Acid-Base Properties of Amino Acids
pH=1: +H3N – CH2 - COOH
pH=7: +H3N – CH2 – COO-
pH=12: H2N – CH2 – COO-
What are peptides??
• Chains of Amino Acids polymerized via amide or “peptide” bonds
• Peptide bond formation is an example of a condensation reaction by removal of the
elements of water (dehydration) from the -carboxyl group of one amino acid and the –
amino group of another
• Biologically occurring peptides range in size from small to very large, consisting of two
or three to thousands of linked amino acid residues
– Dipeptide (two AA residues e:g, aspartame )
– Oligopeptide ( a few AA residues e:g, oxytocin- a nonapeptide)
– Polypeptide (many AA residues e:g, Insuline)
9. Peptide Bond Formation
Ionization Behavior of Peptides
• Peptides contain only one free -amino group and one free -carboxyl group, at opposite
ends of the chain
• These groups ionize as they do in free amino acids
• The -amino and -carboxyl groups of all nonterminal amino acids are covalently joined in
the peptide bonds, which do not ionize and contribute to the total acid-base behavior of
peptides
• R groups of some amino acids can ionize, contribute to the overall acid-base properties of
the molecule
• Thus the acid-base behavior of a peptide can be predicted from its free -amino and -
carboxyl groups as well as the nature and number of its ionizable R groups
10. AA composition of Peptides
• Hydrolysisof peptidesor proteinswith acid yieldsa mixture of free -aminoacids
• The 20 common amino acids almost neveroccur inequal amounts in a protein
• Some amino acids may occur only once or not at all ina giventype of protein;othersmay
occur inlarge numbers
• Complete hydrolysisalone isnot sufficientfor an exact analysisof amino acid composition,
some additional proceduresare usedto resolve the ambiguities
What are proteins??
• Proteins can be very long polypeptide chains of 100 to several thousand amino acid
residues
• The sequence of amino acids in a protein is characteristic of that protein
• Some proteins are composed of several noncovalently associated polypeptide chains,
called subunits
• Simple proteins yield only amino acids on hydrolysis; conjugated proteins contain in
addition some other component, such as a metal or organic prosthetic group
Size of Polypeptides
• Naturally occurring peptides range in length from two to many thousands of amino acid
residues
• The smallest peptides can have biologically important effects as the artificial sweetener
aspartame
• Many small peptides exert their effects at very low concentrations as oxytocin (nine
amino acid residues), secreted by the posterior pituitary and stimulates uterine
contractions
11. • Corticotropin is a 39-residue hormone (slightly larger) of the anterior pituitary gland that
stimulates the adrenal cortex
Monomeric proteins
• Consistof single polypeptide chain(humancytochrome c has 104 AA residueslinkedin
a single chain)
Multimeric proteins
• Have two or more polypeptide chainsassociatednoncovalently(haemoglobinhasfour
polypeptide subunits,twoidentical alpha chains and two identical beta chains
How long a Polypetide canbe??
