Amino acids, the building blocks which comprise proteins, are made up of an asymmetric alpha carbon atom at their center, an amino group, a hydrogen atom, a carboxyl group, and a R side chain that differs with each amino acid. The R side chain helps to determine whether the amino acid is nonpolar and hydrophobic, polar and hydrophilic, or electrically charged and hydrophilic.
