PROTEIN
 A compound
of C,H,O and N molecules
that bind in a fashion way to form amino
acids
 Amino acids bind to each other to
form protein
 Amino acids bound --> peptide bound
 Protein Nitrogen (PN)
 Non Protein Nitrogen (NPN)
Classification of amino acid
1. Essential amino acid (EAA)

Could not synthesized by the body
 Should get from outside the body (Exogen)
 Adults need 8 essential amino acids which
are : isoleusin, leusin, lysin, phenilalanin,
methionin, threonin, tryptophan, valin
 Children need histidin & arginin adjacent to
the 8 essential amino acids mentioned above
Essential amino acids
1. Isoleucine
2. Leucine
3. Lysin
4. Methionine
5. Phenylalanine
6. Threonine
7. Tryptophan
8. Valin
9. Histidin
10.Arginin
2. Non essential amino acids
(Non EAA)
 Synthesized
by the body from nitrogen
and amino acid carbon chain
 Non essential amino acids are important
to the body but not essential from food
(exogen)
Non essential amino acids
1. Glycine
2. Glutamic acid
3. Arginine
4. Aspartic acid
5. Proline
6. Alanine
7. Serine
8. Tyrosine

19. Carnitine
Protein classified as follow :
1. Complete Protein
- High biologic value (HBV)
- Contain all EAA
- Sufficient quantum of EAA
- Meet the body needs
- Able to support growth and to maintain
body tissue
E.g. : egg, meat, poultry, fish & milk
2. Half complete protein :
- Contain all of EAA
- Insufficient quantum of EAA
- Able to maintain adult health
- Unable to support children growth
E.g. : rice, wheat, tapioca
3. Incomplete Protein :
- Contain fewer EAA
- Lesser EAA quantum
- Inadequate to maintain health
- Unable to support growth
E.g. : gelatin, zein on corn
Role of Protein
Provide amino acids for :
 Growth and development
 Maintain the body tissues
 Produce energy
 Protein synthesis
Protein food sources
Protein
in the food should
provide adequate quality and
quantity that meet the body
need.
Animal Protein
 High
biological value
 Complete protein
 Equivalent to body protein composition
 Digestible and well absorb by the
intestine
Plant Protein
 Within
the plants, protein covered by
cellulose wall
 Plant proteins have lower bioavailability
1. Animal protein food sources
 Milk
 Egg
 Fish
 Meat
 Chicken
(contain 1-4% of protein)
(± 12%)
(10-20%)
(18-20%)
2. Plant protein food sources
 Grain
products ; rice, wheat (flour)
 Nuts ; (15-25%)
 green bean (± 22,2%)
 soybean (35%)
 peanut (25,3%)
 bean
 kacang bogor
(10%)
 kacang mete
(21,2%)
3. Plant protein food sources :
 Tempe
(10-18%)
 Oncom (13%)
 Tauco (10,4%)
 Tofu (7-8%)
 Emping Melinjo (12%)
 Santan murni (4,2%)
The proteins synthesized in the body
if there were complete and
adequate amount of amino acids.
The quality of protein rely on :
availability of all EAA ; adequate
amount (quantum) that meet the
body need.
Protein quality assessment
 Assessment
of protein quality base
on EAA composition.
 Protein
with complete EAA in
adequate amount is called Protein
Reference or Provisional Amino Acid
Pattern (PAAP)
Amino acids pattern (FAO/WHO, 1973)
EAA
 Isoleusin
 Leusin
 Lisin
 Fenilalanin
 Tyrosin
 AA contain S
 Metionin
 Threonin
 Triptofan
 Valin

How to increase protein quality?
- Increase protein quality in the food
- Increase the LAA concentration
---> SUPPLEMENTATION
Two fashions on
supplementation
1. LAA Supplements
- Add crystallized of pure AA
- Expensive , ineffective
E.g. : premix rice
2. Supplementation by one or more
food which contain various LAA
E.g. :
Rice have first LAA, lysin, mix with
peanuts which have first LAA, methionin
Protein metabolism
 Protein
digested by proteolytic enzymes
starting in the stomach ---> in duodenum,
ileum and jejunum ---> form amino acids
 AA absorbed through the intestine by active
transport mechanism and assisted by
carrier protein
 AA ---> portal vein ---> liver
 AA from the liver ---> blood ---> distributed
to the cell organs
 Protein
excretion ---> faeces --->
Undigested Dietary Protein and
endogen protein
 Healthy individual ---> protein does
not excreted through urine, but the
metabolite does
Protein Metabolic Waste Product --->
Urinary Nitrogen : urea and non
protein nitrogen (creatinin and uric
acid)
Amino Acid Pool
 There
are some amino acids in the body
that ready to use by any chance they
needed as energy reserve ; e.g. :
albumin and skeletal muscle cell.
 Amino
acids reserve mentioned above
is called AMINO ACID POOL
 Tissue
amino acids and Amino Acids
Pool are in an equilibrium and
dynamic state.
 Protein
excretion higher than protein intake
will perform negative nitrogen balance -->
reduce body protein --> hypoalbuminemia
or hypoproteinemia
 Protein
intake higher than protein excretion
--> positive nitrogen balance.
Excess protein intake will increase
production of urea, creatinin and uric acid
in the body
Protein RDA on various condition :
 Children
: 1,2-2,2 gr/kg BW/day
 Adult
: 0,8-1,0 gr/kg BW/day
 Pregnancy
: adult + 12 gr/day
 Lactating first
6 month
: adult + 16 gr/day
 Lactating second
6 month
: adult + 12 gr/day
 Lactating
> a year
: adult + 11 gr/day
Diseases related to protein
metabolism disorder
1. PEM (Protein-Energy Malnutrition)
Protein deficiency always happen
simultaneously along with energy
deficiency.
Protein deficiency could occur in
adequate energy intake -->
KWASHIORKOR
2. HOMOCYSTEINURIA
Inborn error of metabolism disease.
Occur in cystathionin synthetase
enzyme deficiency. Methionin
metabolite accumulated and huge
amount of homocystein.
Children usually died at adolescent.
3. PHENYLKETONURIA
Inherited, due to phenylalanin
synthetase enzyme deficiency.
