چکیده

The efficiency with which fish and other animals add and maintain body proteins is a balance between synthesis of proteins and their degradation. In fish that have similar food consumption and protein synthesis rates, a greater ratio of synthesis to degradation would be expected to produce more efficient conversion of food into growth. In addition, we hypothesised that high activities of the proteasome, a major pathway of protein degradation, would be negatively correlated with growth rate. In order to test this hypothesis we maintained rainbow trout for 62 days, during which repeat measurements of food consumption and growth were made. We selected fish for high and low growth efficiencies. Protein degradation was estimated from the difference between protein synthesis (determined by 15N flux) and protein growth. We found that protein synthesis rates were significantly higher in the low growth efficiency group, as were estimated protein degradation rates. In another group of fish that also did not differ in food consumption, the activity of the proteasome in the liver, but not in the muscle, was negatively correlated with growth rates. These two experiments showed that high proteasome activity is linked to decreased growth efficiency.
