The “ideal protein” concept is not ideal in animal nutrition [PDF]
Amino acids (AAs) are required for syntheses of proteins and low-molecular-weight substances with enormous physiological importance. Since 1912, AAs have been classified as nutritionally essential amino acids (EAAs) or nonessential amino acids (NEAAs) for animals.

Principles for designing ideal protein structures [PDF]
Unlike random heteropolymers, natural proteins fold into unique ordered structures. Understanding how these are encoded in amino-acid sequences is complicated by energetically unfavourable non-ideal features--for example kinked α-helices, bulged β-strands, strained loops and buried polar groups--that arise in proteins from evolutionary selection for ...

Urea Nitrogen Metabolite Can Contribute to Implementing the Ideal Protein Concept in Monogastric Animals [PDF]
The ideal protein concept refers to dietary protein with an amino acid profile that exactly meets an animal’s requirement. Low-quality protein levels in the diet have negative implications for productive and reproductive traits, and a protein oversupply ...

Concept and application of ideal protein for pigs. [PDF]
Knowledge about the amino acid requirements and the response of pigs to the amino acid supply is essential in feed formulation. A deficient AA supply results in a reduction in performance while an oversupply is costly and leads to excessive nitrogen excretion with a potentially negative environmental impact.

Lysine: Ideal protein in turkeys
This paper will review current and previous research related to our work on ideal proteins for turkeys. The concept of ideal protein is not new, but has not been researched in turkeys to any extent. Ideal proteins may be defined as the exact balance of amino acids needed for maximal growth. Ideal proteins are based on digestible amino acids.

Ideal architecture of residue packing and its observation in protein structures [PDF]
AbstractA simple model of sphere packing has been investigated as an ideal model for long‐range interactions for the packing of non‐bonded residues in protein structures. By superposing all residues, the geometry of packing around a central residue is investigated.

Elastin: a representative ideal protein elastomer [PDF]
During the last half century, identification of an ideal (predominantly entropic) protein elastomer was generally thought to require that the ideal protein elastomer be a random chain network. Here, we report two new sets of data and review previous data.

Biomarkers and De Novo Protein Design Can Improve Precise Amino Acid Nutrition in Broilers
Precision nutrition in broilers requires tools capable of identifying amino acid imbalances individually or in groups, as well as knowledge on how more digestible proteins can be designed for innovative feeding programs adjusted to animals’ dynamic ...
