Amino Acid Structure Quiz/Card

Do you know the chemical formula of glycine? Amino acids are building blocks of proteins and peptides. Thus, the knowledge of their structures and names is important not only for chemists, but also for biologists, pharmacists, and just for everyone studying science or medicine. This app is the easiest and the most efficient way to learn the structures, codes, and properties of 20 standard amino acids (lysine, valine, and so on) and more than 20 related compounds (such as ornithine, taurine, cystine and others).
*****


* 'Structure
- Name' Quiz
* Flashcards
- Rate each card to adjust to your level of knowledge
* All 22 proteinogenic Amino Acids (20 standard + Selenocysteine and Pyrrolysine)
* Colorful structural formulas
* Three
- and One-letter codes (abbreviations)
* Isoelectric points (pI)
* Essential Amino Acids
- from Phenylalanine to Tryptophan
* Polar (aspartic and glutamic acids, arginine) and Hydrophobic Amino Acids (leucine, isoleucine)
* Unnatural Amino Acids such as D-Alanine
* Dipeptides such as Aspartame

*****

It is a perfect app for everyone studying:


* Biochemistry
* Organic Chemistry
* Molecular Biology

Helped me a ton, but to improve I think I'd make it so that you need to type the name instead of select the letters, because that made it a little too easy. Also a way to make you draw the named amino acid, so you remember how to do that too. Overall very good, lots of varied types of quizzes which helped.

PROS: it's amazingly effective. Many different ways of teaching you the AAs. CONS: The top left game of "fill in the blank" is way too easy. If you have a molecule and aren't sure if it's valine or leucine all you have to do is see if the letter V is available. I wish it were just a simple QWERTY keyboard and not a collection of letters. Also the number of spaces given tells you how many letters is in the name of the molecule, just make it a single line and dont tell us how many letters it has

i had much fun trying to beat the time limited game, i used the app actively for like 3 days for the 20 common amino acids and now i memorized them perfectly i genuinely recommend this app, it helped a lot :)

I totally love these apps. I use them to memorize new things to keep my brain stimulated. The timed games keep me engaged, always trying to beat my best score. Awesome!!

Very nice app! Would be cool if you could also implement a quiz for the pKa values and side chain types for the proteinogenic amino acids. A flash card quiz would also be nice!

just had to jump in with the multiple choice questions. within 40 minutes I was able to name all 20 common amino acids within 60 seconds. certainly didnt think Id get here during a night, let alone an hour. 5/5.

Love it! I would be amazing if you could add an option with other informations about each AA

Awesome game to learn about amino acids. Add a little bit about their properties also. It'll be the best.

Haa. S. Apr 21, 2020     

I suggest one should try this app if he wants to memorize these structures and names. Jee aspirants must try this

Very good app for learning amino acids with structures . Loved it

Mel. L. Sep 7, 2019     

Great study tool. Repetitive but in a good way.

Eli. D. Apr 15, 2021     

Drawing the structures would be an useful additional task.

Jus. E. Oct 7, 2020     

Excellent 👍 😀 nice ths app is so good with my experiment it helps me understand chemical bond in skeletal formula

Learning with fun..... Great !

Ian. T. Oct 19, 2019     

After spending time studying first to learn the amino acids and their structures this app helped solidify my knowledge.

Great tool for memorization

Eri. J. b. Apr 11, 2020     

This app is pretty cool and straight forward. You will definetely know your amino acids.

Great way to learn all your amino acids.

Joh. B. Feb 13, 2021     

This helped me so much

It's exactly what you think it is...

Tir. G. Feb 5, 2020     

This App is my friend

Cha. S. M. May 6, 2021     

Not much about it

Dan. V. Dec 10, 2017     

Really helped me to learn the 20 basic aminoacids, thanks!

win. a. Feb 16, 2018     

Very educative.Now I can draw the structures and name the twenty amino acids

Sig. R. Nov 18, 2017     

Good if you need practice before a test

Nat. P. Jan 8, 2018     

Seriously the best application for visual learners

Li. Y. Feb 12, 2018     

Effective

Gwe. W. Sep 16, 2015     

It is kind of ok. I love the format and the idea. However, the nitrogen group and carboxyl groups will never be - NH2 and -COOH, at same time. Plus, for Biochemistry, the pH that they should be memorized by is the average human pH of about 7.4. This means the Nitrogen group should be -NH3 with a positive charge and the Carboxyl group should be -COO with a negative charge. -COOH deprotonates at pka=2.6 - any pH above this has it missing the hydrogen (proton). -NH3 pka=9.2 below cannot be deprotonated.

It's very useful for studying amino acids, however, there is no way to only study the proteomic amino acid in the quiz which I find kind of annoying because I only need to know the proteomic amino acids.
