Hi everyone

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.
