An Evolutionary Relationship Between Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase (SCD) Protein Sequences Involved in Fatty Acid Metabolism
Background: Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) is a key enzyme that converts saturated fatty acids (SFAs) to monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) in fat biosynthesis. Despite being crucial for interpreting SCDs’ roles across species, the evolutionary relationship of SCD proteins across species has yet to be elucidated. This study aims to present this evolutionary relationship based on amino aci...
متن کاملProtein metabolism following injury.
Fig. 1 Comparisons in two burned patients between the rate of catabolism ofplasma albumin and y G globulin (as glkg body weight) and the basal metabolic rate (BMR) as percentages above the expected normal value. The patient treated in the cool environment had a burned area covering 30% of the body surface, 10% being full-thickness skin loss; the patient treated in the warm environment had a bur...
متن کاملProtein metabolism during lactation.
Lactation increases considerably the demand for amino acids over that required for basal needs. The demand imposed varies with the quantity of milk produced and, between species, with the protein content of milk. Using data on milk composition from Blaxter (1989) and assuming milk production of 60, 1000 and 50 000 ml/d for a rat, human subject and dairy cow respectively, the ideal protein requi...
متن کاملProteins and Protein Metabolism
additional groups are added to the protein molecule. The construction of the protein molecule may conceivably be demonstrated either by analysis or by synthesis. At present,, owing to the peculiar difficulties which surround the task, neither of these methods has been completely successful. It has, howeVer, been possible to split off from the proteins certain groups of atoms the chemical struct...
متن کاملStudies in Protein Metabolism
There is no doubt that animals can synthesize certain amino acids, the ultimate source of the nitrogen being that of the food protein. This process probably occurs under normal conditions, as the average composition of food proteins is never the same as that of the body proteins into which they have to be converted. According to the generally accepted theory, amino acid synthesis in the animal ...
