text: Preferably such lipid compounds contain unbranched groups or groups which are only slightly branched so that these overall sizes for the groups R1 and R4 correspond closely to their chain lengths (the length of an aliphatic hydrocarbon chain being the number of carbon atoms in the longest sequence of carbon atoms in the chain so that a branched chain will contain a larger total number of carbon atoms than its length) .
text: Thus, there are three functional groups in these amino acids that may act as acids or bases—the two backbone groups and the R-group.
