摘要

Units representing amino acids and education kit comprising the same. The present invention comprises a number of units representing the main 20 amino acids.In addition, the present invention includes units representing the alpha carbon, the amine group, carboxyl group, hydrogen and connection elements (peptide bonds, hydrogen bridges and disulphide bridges). The present invention includes adicionau00edmente, the representation of polarity, electronegativity and hidrofilia of side chains of amino acids.The models have dimensions and fittings suitable for the assembly of structures of each amino acid and connecting pins for the assembly of chains of amino acids, i.e., they can represent structures of primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary protein. The present invention is in the field of biology and education.
