Devlin classifies amino acids along structural lines
A third method of classification, sourced from Koolman2 .

Describe the classification of all amino acids ...

Answer / sa

amino acids are of 3 types
1. acidic
2.basic
3.neutral
now acidity is due to presence of excess cooH grps,

Again it can be classified as essential-eg leucine,lysine
etc and non-essential amino acids.
