The biological functions and metabolic pathways of valine in swine

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2023
Valine is an essential amino acid and a type of branched-chain amino acid. Due to the involvement of branched-chain amino acids in various metabolic pathways, there has been a surge of interests in valine nutrition and its role in animal physiology.

Interactions of the branched-chain amino acids. 1. Influence of dietary isoleucine and leucine on the valine requirement of male Cobb MV × 500 broilers for a 29- to 42-day finisher period

Journal of Applied Poultry Research, 2022
SUMMARY: Branched-chain amino acid requirements have traditionally been determined using dose-response titrations without accounting for the influence of branched-chain amino acid antagonism.

Norvaline is accumulated after a down-shift of oxygen in Escherichia coli W3110

Microbial Cell Factories, 2008
Background Norvaline is an unusual non-proteinogenic branched-chain amino acid which has been of interest especially during the early enzymological studies on regulatory mutants of the branched-chain amino acid pathway in Serratia marcescens.
