| arginine | An L-alpha-amino acid that is the L-isomer of arginine. | L-arginine |
| glutamic acid | An optically active form of glutamic acid having L-configuration. | L-glutamic acid |
| glutamine | An optically active form of glutamine having L-configuration. | L-glutamine zwitterion; L-glutamine |
| proline | Pyrrolidine in which the pro-S hydrogen at position 2 is substituted by a carboxylic acid group. L-Proline is the only one of the twenty DNA-encoded amino acids which has a secondary amino group alpha to the carboxyl group.
