The faecal and true ilealavailability (IIDs)of amino acids from wheat, barley, triticale, and maize was studied by applying a T-shaped cannula in the lower ileum. When calculating the amino acid score of cereals, it was found that the first limiting acid is ‒ lysine, the second threonine, the third ‒methionine+cystine (for wheat, barley and corn) and for triticale ‒ isoleucine and valine. The obtained estimates of the amino acids of feed components should be used in the development of complete feed for pigs.

Bernard Soulier Syndrome

We investigated the molecular genetic and biosynthetic basis of Bernard-Soulier syndrome in a severely affected white woman. Flow cytometric analysis showed a severe deficiency of glycoprotein (GP) Ib, GP IX, and GP V on the surface of her platelets. Similarly, GP Ibα was undetectable by immunoblot analysis of platelet lysates. Surprisingly, a large quantity of a 70-kD protein (which probably represents a GP Ibα degradation product) was found in the patient's plasma in much greater quantities than in the plasma of an unaffected individual. To analyze the molecular lesion responsible for the disorder, we amplified and sequenced gene segments corresponding to the entire coding regions of the GP Ibα, GP Ibβ, and GP IX genes. The patient was homozygous for a specific GP Ibα allele that contained two tandem VNTR repeats in the region encoding the macroglycopeptide (C variant) and three differences from the published GP Ibα gene sequence. Two mutations were unlikely to be involved in the disorder: the substitution of a single base (T → C) in the second nucleotide of exon 2, which is in the 5′ untranslated region of the GP Ibα transcript, and a silent mutation in the third base of the codon for Arg342 (A → G) that does not change the amino acid sequence. The third mutation was a deletion of the last two bases of the codon for Tyr492 (TAT). This mutation causes a frameshift that alters the GP Ibα amino acid sequence, beginning within its transmembrane region. The mutant polypeptide contains 81 novel amino acids and is 38 amino acids shorter than its wild-type counterpart. The new sequence changes the hydrophobic nature of the transmembrane domain and greatly decreases the net positive charge of what had been the cytoplasmic domain. The deletion mutation was introduced into the GP Ibα cDNA, alone and in combination with the 5′ mutation, and expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. The deletion alone severely reduced GP Ibα expression on the cell surface. Expression was not decreased further by addition of the 5′ mutation, confirming that the deletion was the cause of the Bernard-Soulier phenotype. Stable cell lines expressing the mutant polypeptide secreted large amounts of the polypeptide into the medium, suggesting that the mutant anchors poorly in the plasma membrane. Nevertheless, a fraction of the mutant was able to associate with GP Ibβ, as demonstrated by their coimmunoprecipitation with a GP Ibβ antibody.

The paper emphasizes the importance of not only the quantitative but also qualitative composition of protein in nutrition. The authors propose protein classification into three main groups according to the concept of reference (ideal) protein. A mathematical model is examined to solve the task of rational mixture production upon the given profile of reference protein. Two variants of the criterion for formation of optimal composition are described. One of them presents the classical sum of squares of the residual for essential amino acid scores and 1. The second also presents the sum of squares of the residual for essential amino acid scores and 1 but with regard to only those amino acids, which scores are less than 1. The minima of these criteria at the set of variants for the content of ingredients are taken as targeted functions. The algorithm and the program of calculation were realized in the program environment Builder C++ 6.0. The macro flowchart of the algorithm is presented and detailed description of each block is given. The program interface before and after the start of the calculation module is shown. The main windows and interpretation of the presented data are described. An example of realization of the proposed mathematical apparatus when calculating a food model composition is given. Plant components (white kidney beans, flax, peanut, grit “Poltavskaya», dry red carrot) were used as an object of the research. Most plant proteins were incomplete. It is possible to regulate the chemical composition including correction of a protein profile by combination of plant raw materials. Analysis of alternative variants demonstrated that minimum essential amino acid score in the first composition was 0.79 (by the first criterion), in the second 1.0 (by the second criterion); the reference protein proportion in the mixture was 10.8 and 13.5, respectively, according to the first and second criterion. The comparative results by other quality indicators for protein in the mixture are also presented: the coefficient of amino acid score difference (CAASD), biological value (BV), coefficient of utility, essential amino acids index (IEAA).

The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the nutritional value of amino acids and its commercial value in the fish processing sector in Antarctic krill with cross-referenced in the white shrimp. For determination of the composition of 17 amino acids in the two shrimp muscle, free amino acids were measured using sulfosalicylic acid method, hydrolysed amino acid using hydrochloric acid hydrolysis.17 kinds of hydrolysed amino acids are measured in the muscle of Antarctic krill and White shrimp, which total content is 513.59±18.56mg/g and 537.61±16.8mg/g respectively.16 kinds of free amino acids are measured, which total content is 616.88±44.61mg/100g and 1276±75.67mg/100g respectively, while cysteine is not found. According to amino acid score (AAS), chemical score (CS), the limiting amino acid of Antarctic krill and White shrimp is valine and methionine + cysteine. The umani amino acids accounted for 27.76% of free amino acids and 35.69% of hydrolysed amino acids in Antarctic krill, while White shrimp is 41.08% and 31.52% respectively. The amino acids in Antarctic krill, TAV of which is greater than 1, include glutamic acid, alanine, lysine and arginine.

Penaeus japonicus is an important marine shrimps resource in China. In order to evaluate the nutritional value, the contents of general nutritional compositions, amino acids and fatty acids in muscle were compared between wild and farmed P. japonicus. The contents of muscle moisture and crude protein, fat and ash in wild P. japonicus were 77.16%, 17.74%, 2.08% and 1.79％, and those in farmed P. japonicus were 78.02%, 17.26%, 2.04% and 1.63％, respectively. The essential amino acids (EAA) in wild and farmed P. japonicus were 23.25％ and 22.43％, respectively. The amino acid score of essential amino acids were higher than 100 except Leu and Trp, so the protein of P. japonicus has a well-balanced amino acid composition. Wild P. japonicus has more unsaturated fatty acids (64.05％) than farmed group (60.34％). Higher n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), eicosapentainoic acids (EPA, 20:5 n-3), docosahexaenoic acids (DHA, 22:6 n-3) contents and lower C16:0, C20:0, C18:1, C18:2, C18:3 levels were detected in the wild group. Values of n-6/n-3 in muscle of farmed and wild P. japonicus were 0.30 and 0.23 respectively, which were both significantly lower than the maximum value (4.0) recommended by UK Department of Health (HMSO, 1994), while Values of the PUFA/SFA ratio of two groups were 0.60 and 0.74 higher than the minimum value (0.45) recommended by HMSO. Thus the muscle of farmed and wild P. japonicus are both healthy and safe, and the the muscle of wild P. japonicus is more beneficial to human health.

The effect if steam pelleting and regrinding on digestibility of protein in corn, wheat, barley, oats, soybean meal and wheat bran was tested with rats. Percentage amino acid absorption and net protein utilization (NPU) were determined for the wheat bran. Pelleting and regrinding improved the digestibility of protein in bran but had no effect on the digestibility of protein in the other ingredients tested. Increased absorption of amino acids caused by the increased digestibility of protein in bran varied considerably for individual amino acids, being greatest for isoleucine, lysine, methionine and threonine of the essential amino acids. The improvement in protein digestibility and amino acid availability was reflected in a higher NPU.

1. The apparent absorption values of individual amino acids from two samples of feather meal (FM) were determined in the lower ileum of chicks fed on diets containing magnesium ferrite as a marker.2. The average absorption values for FM amino acids were low, approximately 0.50, as compared with approximately 0.85 for soya bean, used as a control. Values for individual amino acids from FM differed distinctly, ranging from 0.20 to 0.70. Low values were obtained for aspartic acid, histidine, lysine, glutamic acid and cystine.3. An indication of the low absorption of the previously-mentioned amino acids was obtained by analysing the amino acid composition of the FM residues undigested by pepsin or pancreatin.4. The reasons for testing the apparent rather than the true absorption are discussed.

“Batuan” [Garcinia binucao (Blco.) Choisy], an indigenous, lesser known member of the Gutifferae family with export potential is underutilized and understudied. The present study was carried out to extract and characterize the protein in “batuan” [Garcinia binucao (Blco.) Choisy] seeds for nutritional quality assessment. Protein content of “batuan” seed meal was 8.9 ± 0.59% dry basis. Solubility fractionation of “batuan” seed meal showed globulin and glutelin as the major seed proteins. SDS-PAGE resolved the globulin and glutelin into three groups of polypeptides with molecular weights of about 20 – 54 kDa. Amino acid analysis revealed that seed protein contained all the essential amino acids with leucine as the most abundant while tryptophan, the least. “Batuan” seed proteins were mostly made up of acidic and hydrophobic amino acids with glutamic acid (2.67%) as the highest. Nutritional assessments including E/T (38.4%), amino acid score (1.6%), predicted PER (3.2-3.7) and estimated BV (98.3%) suggested that the seed proteins are of good quality. Hence, “batuan” seeds has a promising potential as an important sources of valuable proteins and amino acids for use as food supplement/enhancing ingredient.

Исследована комплементарность белка льняного жмыха с белком ряда семян и зерна бобовых культур с целью создания пищевых добавок повышенной биологической ценности для использования в индивидуальном,функциональном, специализированном и спортивном питании. Произведен расчет аминокислотных скоров белка зерна продуктов растениеводства по отношению к эталонному белку ФАО/ВОЗ 2013 г. для человека (без учета усвояемости). По общему уровню белка и основным показателям льняной жмых существенно уступает только соевому жмыху и обрушенному люпину. Однако белок семян льна неполный. Разработан алгоритм оптимизации пятикомпонентных пищевых белковых систем по критерию максимума минимального аминокислотного скора лимитирующих аминокислот смеси. Программа расчета рационального состава белковых смесей выравнивает скоры лимитирующих аминокислот двух компонентов при ограничениях на содержание остальных трех компонентов. Определено, что идеальный белок (18–20%) получается при смешивании льняного жмыха с продуктами переработки зерна амаранта с долей льна (д. л.) 13–27%. Смеси льняного жмыха (ЛЖ) с нутом (Н) и люпином обрушенным (ЛО) с д. л. 37,0 и 6,5% соответственно имеют меньшее общее содержание белка, чем каждая компонента в отдельности, например, %: (ЛЖ + Н) 28, (ЛЖ + ЛО) 39, ЛЖ 31, ЛО 40. Однако смеси содержат большее количество эталонного белка: (ЛЖ + Н) 28%; (ЛЖ + ЛО) 37,6%. Для сравнения, содержание эталонного белка в продукте составляет, %: ЛЖ 23,3; ЛО 36,7; Н 25,0. Установлено, что высокое содержание белка в жмыхе, полученном из семян льна, позволяет создавать смеси с зернобобовыми продуктами, чей белок комплементарен льняному белку, иполучать пищевые системы с белком улучшенного аминокислотного профиля. The complementarity of flaxseed cake protein with the protein of a number of seeds and legume grains was studied in order to create food additives of increased biological value for use in individual, functional, specialized and sports nutrition. The calculation of the amino-acid score of the grain protein of some leguminous crops in relation to the FAO/WHO 2013 reference protein for humans (excluding digestibility) was made. In terms of the overall protein level and main indicators, flaxseed cake is significantly inferior only to soy cake and collapsed lupine. However, the protein of flax seeds is incomplete. An algorithm for optimizing five-component food protein systems based on the criterion of the maximum of the minimum amino-acid score of the limiting amino acids of the mixture is developed. The program for calculating the rational composition of protein mixtures equalizes the scores of limiting amino acids of two components with restrictions on the content of the other three components. It was determined that the ideal protein (18–20%) is obtained by mixing flaxseed cake with products of amaranth grain processing with a proportion of flax of 13–27%. Mixtures of flaxseed cake (FC) with chickpeas (Ch) and collapsed lupine (CL) with a proportion of flax of 37,0 and 6,5%, respectively, have a lower total protein content than each component separately, for example, %: (FC + Ch) 28, (FC + CL) 39, FC 31, CL 40. However, the mixtures contain more of the reference protein: (FC + Ch) 28%; (FC + CL) 37,6%. For comparison, the reference protein content in the product is, %: FC 23,3; CL 36,7; Ch 25,0. It was found that the high protein content in the cake obtained from flax seeds makes it possible to create mixtures with leguminous products whose protein is complementary to flaxseed protein, and to obtain food systems with protein of an improved amino acid profile.

Digestible Amino Acids

To determine values for the digestible indispensable amino acid score (DIAAS), it is recommended that ileal amino acid (AA) digestibility values obtained in growing pigs are used to characterise protein quality in different foods. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to determine the standardised ileal digestibility (SID) of AA in eight cereal grains (yellow dent maize, Nutridense maize, dehulled barley, dehulled oats, polished white rice, rye, sorghum and wheat) fed to pigs, where SID values in pigs can be used to calculate approximate DIAAS values in humans. In the present experiment, twenty-four barrows with a T-cannula inserted in the distal ileum were allotted to eight diets and fed for three periods to give a total of nine replicate pigs per diet. Each period lasted 14 d, and ileal digesta samples were collected on days 13 and 14. Among the SID values obtained for all cereal grains, values for total indispensable AA were greatest (P< 0·05) in rice and lowest (P< 0·05) in rye and sorghum. The concentrations of SID indispensable AA in rice were less (P< 0·05) than in dehulled oats, but greater (P< 0·05) than in the other cereal grains, and the concentrations of SID indispensable AA in Nutridense maize were greater (P< 0·05) than in yellow dent maize and sorghum, but less (P< 0·05) than in the other cereal grains, except rye. In conclusion, results indicate that to meet dietary requirements for AA in humans, diets based on yellow dent maize or sorghum require more AA supplementation than diets based on other cereal grains.
