Final - Structures Flashcards
leu
neutral, nonpolar
- one of the 3 brainched chain AAs

beta-hydroxy-butyrate
(OH on the beta carbon)

glucose-1-phosphate

6-phosphogluconate
Know how to identify nucleotide AND deoxynucleotide mono, di and triphosphates…
basically just see if the ribose is 2-deoxy or not … then check what base it is… then see how many Ps

Propionic Acid

taurocholic acid
(dont confuse with… cholesterol OR cholic acid OR glycocholic acid…. there’s an S in there, ya big dummy)

serotonin
(decarboxylated and hydroxylated Trp)

glucuronic acid
(NOT glucose! because it has a -COOH instead of -CH2OH)
alanine
his
basic, polar
aromatic
- side chain is imidazole attached to one CH2 via the C furthest from the lone N

Creatine
(made from Gly and Arg … into guanidinoacetate … then methylated on that middle N)

phosphoenolpyruvate PEP
note the C=C in the 3C chain
guanine
(purine with amino and oxo grp)
uracil
(pyrimidine with 2 oxo grps)

Cortisol
21C, O= bc produced from progesterone and lots of -OH groups
thymine
(pyrimidine with 2 oxo and 1 methyl grp… ie methylated uracil)

1,3-BPG

citrate

epinephrine
(decarboxylated, double hydroxlated and methylated tyrosine)

glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate
looks like DHAP, but aldo instead of keto group
cys
neutral, polar
- contains a thiol (R-S-H) on a CH2
ile
neutral, nonpolar
2 chiral centers (4 configurations)
Phosphatidic Acid
