Detailed explanation-1: -Your body needs 20 different kinds of amino acids to function correctly. These 20 amino acids combine in different ways to make proteins in your body.
Detailed explanation-2: -Let’s see each different amino acid according to their classification. 100, 000 proteins-all made of just 20 amino acids!
Detailed explanation-3: -The reason there are so many different types of proteins when there are only 20 amino acids is because, the amino acids can sequence themselves in different patterns, creating a different protein. This is kind of like letters in the alphabet forming many words.
Detailed explanation-4: -It is well known that proteins are built up from an alphabet of 20 different amino acid types. These suffice to enable the protein to fold into its operative form relevant to its required functional roles.
