For example, some amino acids have polar side chains that are soluble in water; examples include serine, threonine, and asparagine. Other amino acids avoid water and are called hydrophobic, such ...

Polar Amino Acids: These amino acids have side chains that are hydrophilic and can form hydrogen bonds with water.Examples include serine, threonine, cysteine, asparagine, and glutamine. Non-Polar ...

For example, N-glycosylation (attachment of glycans to nitrogen on the amine side chain of asparagine) and O-glycosylation (attachment of glycans to oxygen on serine and/or threonine).
