At neutral pH, what is the net charge on a “basic” amino acid? What is the net charge on an “acidic” amino acid?

Answer 1

Basic amino acids will have a pI greater than 7. Thus, at neutral pH (7), these amino acids would have a POSITIVE net charge.

Acidic amino acids will have a pI less than 7. Thus at neutral pH (7) , these amino acids would have a NEGATIVE net charge.
