Amino acids are organic compounds containing amine ( - NH ) and carboxyl ( - COOH ) functional groups , along with a side chain ( R group ) specific to each amino acid . The key elements of an amino acid are carbon ( C ) , hydrogen ( H ) , oxygen ( O ) , and nitrogen ( N ) , although other elements are found in the side chains of certain amino acids . About 500 amino acids are known ( though only 20 appear in the genetic code ) and can be classified in many ways . They can be classified according to the core structural functional groups ' locations as alpha - ( α - ) , beta - ( β - ) , gamma - ( γ - ) or delta - ( δ - ) amino acids ; other categories relate to polarity , pH level , and side chain group type ( aliphatic , acyclic , aromatic , containing hydroxyl or sulfur , etc . ) . In the form of proteins , amino acid residues form the second - largest component ( water is the largest ) of human muscles and other tissues . Beyond their role as residues in proteins , amino acids participate in a number of processes such as neurotransmitter transport and biosynthesis .

Spanish naming customs are historical traditions for naming children practised in Spain . According to these customs , a person 's name consists of a given name ( simple or composite ) followed by two family names ( surnames ) . The first surname is usually the father 's first surname , and the second the mother 's first surname . In recent years , the order of the surnames can be decided at birth . Often , the practice is to use one given name and the first surname only ( e.g. Miguel de Unamuno ) , with the full name being used in legal , formal , and documentary matters , or for disambiguation when the first surname is very common ( e.g. Federico García Lorca ). . In these cases , it is common to use only the second surname , as in `` Lorca '' or `` Zapatero '' . Note that this does not affect alphabetization : discussions of `` Lorca '' , the Spanish poet , must be alphabetized in an index under `` García Lorca '' , never `` Lorca '' .
