Question

Which one of the following amino-acids was not found
to be synthesized in Miller's experiment:
(AIPMT 2006)
(a) Glycine
(b) Aspartic acid
(c) Glutamic acid (d) Alanine​

Answer 1

Answer:

Glutamic acid was not found to be synthesised in Miller's experiment because of its complex synthesis. Amino acids which are simple in structure and require simple reaction for synthesis were formed during the experiment whereas others with complex structure and complex biosynthetic pathway are not.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C

Answer 2

Answer:

Glutamic acid was absent in Millers experiment.

alpha alanine, beta alanine,AABA and glycine were in less amount.
