Q

3 Positively Charged (Basic) Side Chains?

A

The remaining three amino acids have side chains that have positively charged nitrogen atoms. Lysine has a terminal primary amino group, while arginine has three nitrogen atoms in its side chain; the positive charge is delocalized over all three nitrogen atoms. The final amino acid, histidine, has an aromatic ring with two nitrogen atoms (this ring is called an imidazole).”

Q

Tautomers describe

A

Tautomers are constitutional isomers of organic compounds that readily interconvert by a chemical reaction called tautomerization. This reaction commonly results in the formal migration of a hydrogen atom or proton, accompanied by a switch of a single bond and adjacent double bond.
