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 and more than 20 related compounds.
*****
* '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
* Polar and Hydrophobic Amino Acids
* Unnatural Amino Acids such as D-Alanine
* Dipeptides such as Aspartame
*****
It is a perfect app for everyone studying:
* Biochemistry
* Organic Chemistry
* Molecular Biology
This isn’t even a free game and it literally crashes on every startup.
Started my biochemistry masters course and needed to learn the amino acids and abbreviations by the end of the first week. This app was number 1 and it help tremendously.
I purchased this app and it helps me study, but since I paid for it I shouldn't have ads. Also I wish the name the structure part had a regular keyboard. Basically you could just look at the letters without the structure to figure it out. Can you add supply the name and then draw the structure? If it had that feature I could see $0.99 for the app and still having ads.
