What is the predominant form of pyruvic acid (pKa =2.50) and lactic acid (pKa = 3.86) at physiological pH (7.4)? Draw the predominant structure of each.
In which amino acid does the R group bond to the amino group?
When pH=pKa you have an equal amount of the protonated and deprotonated forms of the acids, when pH>pKa the predominant form is the deprotonated one, while at pH<pKa the predominant form is the protonated one, so:
The only amino acid in which a part of the R group is bonded to the amino group is proline:
