Identify neutral aminoacid from following list represented by three letter symbols.

Options

  1. AArg
  2. BAsp
  3. CLeu
  4. DHis

Correct answer

C. Leu

Step-by-step solution

Amino acid classification depends on the properties of their side chains. Basic amino acids contain proton-accepting groups, acidic amino acids contain proton-donating carboxyl groups, and neutral amino acids lack ionizable groups in their side chains. Arginine features a guanidinium group that protonates at physiological pH, classifying it as basic . Aspartic acid contains an additional carboxylic acid group, making it acidic . Leucine has a nonpolar aliphatic side chain without ionizable groups, rendering it neut
