Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. There are 20 common amino acids. The contain and amine group (-NH2), a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) and a functional group specific to each amino acid. The functional group determines how the amino acid is classified. They are categorized as either, polar, non-polar, acidic or basic. There are 8 different amino acids present in the <scene name='Sandbox_reserved_392/Original_untouched_molecule/1'>Tobramycin-CoA molecule</scene>. CoA has a combination of 7 amino acids bound to it. The amino acids are two Arginine (basic amino acid), one Glycine (polar amino acid), and four Valine (non-polar amino acid). PAP has four amino acids bound to it, two Histidine and two tryptophan (non-polar amino acid). Tobramycin also has four amino acids bound to it, two aspartic acid (acidic amino acid)), Serine (polar amino acid) and tryptophan (non-polar amino acid) | Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.

CoA Amino Acids: | |||
In this representation it displays the covalent bond between <scene name='Sandbox_reserved_392/Arg124_bond_to_coa/2'>CoA and Arginine 124</scene>. Arginine is displayed as the pink molecule and CoA is displayed as the orange and red molecule. Arginine classified as a basic amino acid and is a nonessential alpha amino acid, meaning that can be synthesized by the human body. | In this representation it displays the covalent bond between <scene name='Sandbox_reserved_392/Arg124_bond_to_coa/2'>CoA and Arginine 124</scene>.
