Скачать или смотреть Podcast #7: The 20 Amino Acids

Get ready to familiarize yourself with the world of amino acids, the fundamental building blocks of proteins, and crucial players in metabolism. This video is your ultimate guide to mastering everything you need to know for your college and medical biochemistry courses. 🧪📚
We'll break down the complex world of amino acids into easy-to-understand categories, including:
● Essential vs. Non-Essential Amino Acids: Learn which amino acids your body can't produce and why they are vital for your diet.
● Acidic vs. Basic Amino Acids: Understand the key differences and how to memorize them with our fun mnemonic easily! 🤪
● Ketogenic, Glucogenic, and Mixed Amino Acids: Demystify these tricky categories with simple dietary mnemonics. 🥩🥭
● Amino Acid Derivatives: Explore the fascinating world of amino acid derivatives, including catecholamines from phenylalanine and tyrosine, serotonin and melatonin from tryptophan, and many more. You'll also learn about the high-yield disease Hartnup disease!
● Branched Amino Acids Understand the importance of isoleucine, leucine, and valine and how a deficiency in their metabolism can lead to Maple Syrup Urine Disease. 🍁
● Special Amino Acids: Discover the unique properties of amino acids like proline, glycine, and cysteine and how they influence protein structure and function.
● Amino Acid Structures and Nomenclature: Learn to identify amino acids based on their structures and the one- and three-letter abbreviations. We will cover key concepts like the peptide bond and how to identify amino acids within a polypeptide chain!
● Mutations in Amino Acids Learn how a single mutation can impact protein structure and function, with examples of a phospho-memetic mutation.
We'll use charts, diagrams, and some seriously awesome mnemonics to ensure this sticks! 🧠 This video is not just about memorizing—it’s about truly understanding the roles of amino acids in biological systems. 🧬
Why is this important? 🤔 Amino acids are not just a topic on your exams. They're fundamental to understanding everything from protein synthesis and enzyme function to metabolic pathways and disease mechanisms. Mastering this topic is essential for acing your exams (including the MCAT!) and building a strong foundation for your future medical career.🩺
