چکیده

Lysine is frequently a first- or second-limiting amino acid in poultry diets. Improving the efficiency of lysine use for protein synthesis would effectively lower the lysine requirement and decrease feed costs. Understanding how lysine is degraded and how the degradation is regulated would identify potential molecular targets for interventions to decrease lysine degradation. To better understand lysine degradation in poultry, 3 experiments were conducted. In experiment 1, one-day-old chicks were fed 1.07, 1.25, 1.73, or 3.28% dietary lysine for 2 wk. In experiments 2 and 3, fourteen-day-old chicks were fed 1.07 or 1.25% dietary lysine for 2 wk. Measures of liver lysine catabolism including lysine α-ketoglutarate reductase (LKR) and lysine oxidation (LOX) were assessed. The α-aminoadipate δ-semialdehyde synthase (AASS) is a bifunctional enzyme composed of both LKR and saccharopine dehydrogenase activities, and the relative abundance of this protein and mRNA were likewise assessed. Moreover, potential alternative pathways of lysine catabolism that depend on l-amino acid oxidase (AAOX) and on lysyl oxidase (LYLOX) were considered. In experiment 1, chicks fed lysine-deficient diets had decreased (P < 0.05) LKR activities compared with chicks fed at or above the requirement. However, the lowered LKR activities were not associated with a decreased (P > 0.05) LOX as measured in vitro. In experiments 2 and 3, chicks 28 d of age did not decrease LKR activity (P > 0.05) in response to a lysine-deficient diet. No changes in AASS protein abundance or mRNA were detected. Likewise, no differences in the mRNA abundances of AAOX or LYLOX were detected. The activity of AAOX did increase (P < 0.05) in birds fed a lysine-adequate diets compared with those fed a lysine-deficient diet. Based on kinetic parameters and assumed concentrations, AAOX could account for about 20% of liver lysine oxidation in avians.

Performance Hematology and Correlation between Economical Traits under the Effects of Dietary Lysine and Methionine in Broilers

Lysine (Lys) and Methionine (Met) as two primary essential amino acids and precursors of carnitine biosynthesis are involved in most of economical traits function in domestic animals. We assessed the impact of dietary Lys and Met on the performance, lipid redistribution, intramuscular fat, carcass quality and especially phenotypic correlations among some studied parameters in broiler chickens. ...

Growth and antioxidant status of broilers fed supplemental lysine and pyridoxine under high ambient temperature

Three levels of lysine (90, 100 and 110% of Ross requirement) and of pyridoxine (3, 6 and 9 mg kg-1) were used in a 3 × 3 factorial experiment to investigate the growth and blood antioxidant ability of broilers under high ambient temperature. None of the dietary supplements affected the weight gain during the starter and grower periods. Although no significant differences were detect...

Digestible lysine and sulfur amino acid (SAA) requirements of Ross male broilers were determined during the starter period in two experiments. Broilers were fed a control corn-soy diet (3200 kcal MEn/kg and 23% CP) for 6 days and then randomly assigned to dietary treatments until 16 days of age. The basal diet containing 19% CP was prepared in order to be deficient in lysine for experiment 1 an...
