FTP, identify this simplest essential amino acid, usually abbreviated G.
Along with succinyl coenzyme A, it is used to synthesize porphyrins in mammals. A cleavage enzyme yields one-carbon fragments from this compound that are carried by tetrahydrofolate at several oxidation levels. Every third residue in a typical collagen chain is filled by this amino acid, which is the only one to display no optical activity. This enzyme is unique in that its aliphatic side chain is simply a hydrogen atom. FTP, identify this simplest essential amino acid, usually abbreviated G.
