Glycine is a colorless, sweet-tasting crystalline solid. It is the only achiralproteinogenic amino acid. It can fit intohydrophilic or hydrophobic environments, due to its minimal side chain of only one hydrogen atom. The acyl radical is glycyl. while
Amino carpoic acid does not have properties like glycine it is simply a derivative and analogue of the amino acid lysine, which makes it an effective inhibitor for enzymesthat bind that particular residue. Such enzymes include proteolytic enzymes likeplasmin, the enzyme responsible forfibrinolysis. For this reason it is effective in treatment of certain bleeding disorders, and it is marketed as Amicar. Aminocaproic acid is also an intermediate in the polymerization of Nylon-6, where it is formed by ring-opening hydrolysis of caprolactam.
