Amino acids are acids on one hand, and a base on the other hand.

An acid is a substance that produces hydrogen or hydroxonium ions as the only positively charged ion when it ionizes.

All amino acids have an amine group - $NH_2$ and a carboxylic group - $COOH$ .

The carboxylic group ionizes such that:

$COOH -- > COO^- + H^+$

The presence of the amine group enables amino acids to also act as a base.

Answer:

uncouplers

Explanation:

Metabolic uncouplers are chemicals/molecules that have ability to shuttle H+ across the membrane disrupting the proton motive force necessary for the generation of ATP. As a consequence the ATP synthesis is reduced and anabolism is slowed down. These processes also known as metabolic uncoupling lead to the reduction in biomass yield (weight loss).
