MCAT Amino Acids 2 - Hydrophobic Non-Polar Neutral Side Chains

[@SuCcEABC8]

seriously you are a gift from above!!

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

Glad I could help :)

[@pswank007]

this playlist is amazing, really clearing things up for me in my biochemistry course.

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Giulia2425.]

Grandma Always Visits London In May For Winston's Party! ^^That's how I remember the non-polar amino acids.

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

Awesome!

[@Kylie-yv1bw]

Thank you, I already have the 1 letter codes memorised because of this!

[@everelusivekudos]

Thank you so much for these videos! The memory tricks for remembering the names with the structures have been really helpful. Greetings from Puerto Rico!!

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

You're welcome! So glad it helped!

[@hanibarnieh2789]

wow.... just wow... thank you sooooo much. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. you're a life saver. Thanks a lotttttt

Hello Leah, I am trying to get the 6 week guide to crushing the MCAT that you offer but the link does not open. Can you help me? thank you and I love your content.

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

Please contact me through my website for more details --> join.mcatstudyhall.com/ or leah4sci.com/contact/

[@Ryan-us7oh]

wow i started studying nutrition on my own cuz i love it then decided to start learning all i can about amino acids..... but this is gonna take a long time im completely lost hahahahaha

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

I hope the videos here will help you understand amino acids better. I wish you all the best! :)

[@gregorykarimian3813]

hey Leah, did you take the mcat or end up pursue medicine as well? thanks for the vids btw

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

I discuss it here leah4sci.com/banned

[@connordeen5881]

Hey Liah, great series, is working well to prepare me for the OAT. One gripe: could you keep a constant distance from the microphone? You keep getting louder and softer all of a sudden. Again, very good videos

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@fauxpassant]

around 0:13, hydrophobic spelt wrongly.

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

+Guy de Fauxpassant yeah... alas KZbin won't let me edit a video once it's been published. Hopefully you still got the gist of the video

[@fauxpassant]

yup! your videos are interesting! (i think youtube allows you to put a box to cover it and write the correct word, something like that)

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

+Guy de Fauxpassant Annotations won't show up on mobile or for those who use ad-blockers so... I'll give it a shot though

[@momotomure1805]

what make an amino acid to become achirral

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

Chiral amino acids will have 4 unique substituents. Glycine does not have an R group, instead it just has H giving it a total of 2 H atoms on the alpha carbon. I discuss chirality more detail here: leah4sci.com/chirality

[@sohnaahmed6455]

also, you state that glycine is chiral when it's actually achiral...

[@timoritofau]

She says its ACHIRAL

[@judykangas4495]

Bruh she said it’s achiral 5 times. I’m not getting the joke here

[@Leah4sciMCAT]

Glycine is the only achiral amino acid due to having H as its side chain
