1	ALA	A	Alanine		hydrophobic
2	CYS	C	Cysteine		free amino group makes it basic and hydrophilic
3	ASP	D	Aspartic acid		carbohydrate can be covalently linked ("N-linked) to its -NH
4	GLU	E	Glutamic acid		free carboxyl group makes it acidic and hydrophilic
5	PHE	F	Phenylalanine		oxidation of their sulfhydryl (-SH) groups link 2 Cys (S-S)
6	GLY	G	Glycine		free carboxyl group makes it acidic and hydrophilic
7	HIS	H	Histidine		moderately hydrophilic
8	ILE	I	Isoleucine		so small it is amphiphilic (can exist in any surroundings)
9	LYS	K	Lysine		basic and hydrophilic
10	LEU	L	Leucine		hydrophobic
11	MET	M	Methionine		hydrophobic
12	ASN	N	Asparagine		strongly basic and hydrophilic
13	PRO	P	Proline		hydrophobic
14	GLN	Q	Glutamine		very hydrophobic
15	ARG	R	Arginine		causes kinks in the chain
16	SER	S	Serine		carbohydrate can be covalently linked ("O-linked") to its -OH
17	THR	T	Threonine		carbohydrate can be covalently linked ("O-linked") to its -OH
18	VAL	V	Valine		scarce in most plant proteins
19	TRP	W	Tryptophan		a phosphate or sulfate group can be covalently attached to its -OH
20	TYR	Y	Tyrosine		hydrophobic
