Which of the following statements is not correct?
  • A
    Proteins are poly amides formed from aminoacids.
  • B
    Except glycine, all other amino acids show optical activity.
  • C
    Natural proteins are made up of L isomers of amino acids.
  • D
    In amino acids NH2​ and COOH groups are attached to different carbon atoms.

Answer

  1. In amino acids NH2 ​and COOH groups are attached to different carbon atoms.

Explanation:

  1. Proteins are poly amides formed from alpha amino acids. Thus, the option A is correct.
  2. Except glycine, all other amino acids show optical activity as they contain chiral carbon atom. Glycine is achiral. Thus, option B is correct.
  3. Natural proteins are made up of L isomers of amino acids. Thus, statement C is correct.
  4. In amino acids NH2​ and COOH groups are attached to same carbon atom.
