Glycine | |
Glycine is the simplest amino acid in the 20 members of the amino acid series. It is also called aminoacetic acid. It is a non-essential amino acid for the human body. It has both acidic and alkaline functional groups in the molecule. It is a strong electrolyte in aqueous solution, has a high solubility in strongly polar solvents, is basically insoluble in non-polar solvents, and has a high boiling point and melting point. Glycine can present different molecular forms by adjusting the acidity and alkalinity of the aqueous solution. The side bond of glycine is a hydrogen atom. Since its α carbon also has a hydrogen atom, glycine is not optically isomerized. Since the side bond of glycine is very small, it can occupy space that other amino acids cannot occupy, such as being an amino acid in the collagen helix. It is a white crystal or light yellow crystalline powder at room temperature.
