the presence of a hydroxyl group may be the reason but the aminoacid tyrosine is not easily soluble in water so it cannot be classified as hydrophillic

Glycine is hydrophilic. I dissolve it every now and then in water to make transfer buffers for SDS-PAGE.

Tyrosine is classified as hydrophobic. However, the -OH group on the ring can be protonated to make it hydrophilic. One of the protein that I study has two tyrosines near its 3' end which is freely soluble in the intracellular enviroment.

Good luck to you guys.

presence of -OH group means it can react with water..so hydrophilic...as such tyrosine is hydrophilic.
