Concept introduction:
Many amino acids are linked together through amide bonds to form a biologically large molecule known to be proteins.
Amino functional group is
Zwitter ion has both positive as well as negative charge, thus it is also called neutral dipolar ion.
Zwitter ion accepts proton in acidic condition and in basic condition zwitter ion lose electrons.
Isoelectric point are the
