Amino acid supplementation of calf milk replacers containing bovine plasma protein
… because of their high digestibility, desirable amino acid profile, and lack of anti-nutritional factors. Over the course of the past five years the price of milk-based proteins has continued to increase. As a result research has focused on finding more cost effective alternative protein sources …

The effect of amino acid supplementation on weight, body composition, muscle size, and muscle strength in amateur weightlifters
… in a study to determine the effect of an amino acid supplement on muscle size, muscle strength, body composition, and body weight. A blind protocol was followed in which eight of the participants were administered the amino acid supplement and seven received a placebo. Each subject was …

Effects of Amino Acid Supplementation of Reduced Crude Protein (RCP) Diets on the Performance and Carcass Quality of Growing-Finishing Swine
… were used to test the effects of synthetic AA supplementation of reduced CP diets on the growth performance and quality characteristics of the LM and the fatty acid composition of the LM and s.c. jowl fat from growing-finishing swine. Pigs were blocked by BW within gender, and allocated …

Effects of 28 days of protein and amino acid supplementation and ankle immobilization on gastrocnemius muscle mass and strength and atrophy- and apoptosis-related gene expression in males.
… was to determine the extent to which the daily supplementation of protein and amino acids for 28-days in combination with ankle immobilization in humans attenuated decreases in: 1) gastrocnemius muscle mass, 2) plantar flexion strength, 3) and expression of genes associated with the ubiquitin …

Lysine and Tryptophan Supplementation of Low-Protein Corn-Soybean Meal Diets for Swine
… of experiments were conducted to investigate amino acid supplementation of low-protein diets for swine. These experiments established the minimum levels of crude protein in starter, grower and finisher diets that will, when supplemented with lysine and tryptophan, support growth and f

Characterizing CMT-causing variants in tryptophanyl- tRNA synthetase
Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) are essential enzymes that link amino acids to their cognate tRNAs. Neurological conditions, such as Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease, have been linked to variants identified in these enzymes. I created a humanized yeast model to assess the underlying …

Feeding behavior and metabolism of transition dairy cows supplemented with monensin
… mid-lactation cows with two commercial amino acid products were investigated. Traditionally, the effects of monensin are attributed to increased gluconeogenic precursor supply, but recent research indicated that the effects of monensin extend beyond gluconeogenic flux. Thus, the primary …

Skeletal Muscle Protein Metabolism and Molecular Responses to Endurance Exercise and Nutritional Interventions
… in skeletal muscle tissue to exogenous amino acids and to a wide range of resistance exercise intensities. In addition, aging is associated with adaptations within the vascular system that may adversely affect blood flow, thereby potentially impacting amino acid delivery, exchange and …

Growth of Thoroughbreds fed Different Levels of Protein and Supplemented with Lysine and Threonine
… for growth in the horse may be reduced with amino acid supplementation. This study investigated the effects on growth and protein status of Thoroughbred foals offered a supplement with a typical CP level to a supplement that had a lower CP level fortified with limiting amino acids. The …

Evaluation of organically certifiable alternate protein sources for production of the marine carnivore, cobia (Rachycentron canadum)
… protein sources could be achieved with specific amino acid supplementation. Two additional trials involved the use of the yeast-based protein with supplementation by the amino acids methionine, tryptophan, and taurine. Diets containing 50 and 75% of the yeast-based protein were investigated with …
