Amino Acid Phosphorylation | MCAT Content
In this lesson, we discuss a lesser-known but important aspect of amino acids their ability to be phosphorylated. To remember which amino acids we introduce a helpful mnemonic YST and learn how to use it when answering questions.

00:14 - Which Amino Acids Are Phosphorylated?
00:39 - Why YST are Phosphorylated?
01:00 - How Phosphorylation Changes YST Structure

Same here. I’m wondering if he made videos specifically on what the prep books don’t cover because I’ve literally seen none of the content in the first few videos I’ve watched of his and I’ve read all of Kaplan…
Thank you so much! Writing the MCAT tomorrow and your videos are helping to solidify a few weak points. Keep up the great work!

I am glad you found the channel helpful and thank you for the kind words. I am planning on continuing to build the channel up as time permits hopefully I will be able to get back to weekly or twice weekly videos again.
Thank you so much for this great video; it was awesome! If you are taking requests, I would love more videos on the things we have to know about the amino acids (besides just their charge/polarity/etc.), like reactivity.

Glad the video helped!!! I have a pretty big backlog of videos I am working on currently so I am not taking suggestions quite yet, but I will keep this topic in mind for when I finish up with everything that I have planned so far.

Thank you! That is a great mnemonic too.
Can't Histidine also be phophorylated though?? YST H or SHYT lol

Histidine can't be phosphorylated, only amino acids that have OH in their side chains
