Protein Metabolism II ANS 520 Fate of Rumen Ammonia 1. Bacterial protein synthesis 2. Absorbed from reticulorumen and omasum NH3 passes from rumen by diffusion into portal blood. (High concentration to low) Form of ammonia dependent on pH of rumen NH3 + H+ NH4+ Less absorption at more acid pH 3. At pH of rumen, no NH3 lost as gas Fate of Absorbed Ammonia 1. Transported to liver by portal vein 2. Converted to urea via urea cycle in liver NH3 Urea Urea cycle 3. Urea released into blood 4. If capacity of urea cycle in liver is exceeded Ammonia toxicity Over consumption of urea Fate of Blood Urea 1. Excreted into urine 2. Recycled to digestive tract, g N/d • Saliva – Related to concentration of urea in blood Sheep: 0.5 to 1.0 Cattle: 1.0 to 7.6 • Diffusion into GIT Sheep: 2 to 5 Cattle: 25 to 40 Urea Diffusion into Rumen Rumen wall Blood urea Urea NH3 1.

Urea flowing back into digestive tract Rumen • Saliva • Diffusion from blood Lower digestive tract (large intestine, colon, cecum) • Diffusion from blood • Endogenous protein secretions into GIT Mucins Enzymes Sloughing of tissue 2. Turnover of microbial cells in rumen & reticulum Significance of Recycled Nitrogen Source of N for microbes when protein consumption is limited • Wild species Protein intake during winter is very low Rumen deficient of nitrogen for microbial activity • Slowly degraded feed proteins Recycling provides nitrogen for microbial growth • Infrequent feeding of supplemental protein • Programs to reduce supplemental nitrogen Difficult to make ruminants severely protein deficient Urea Nitrogen - Cattle Saliva urea 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 0 Urine N N, g/d mM Plasm urea 1.45 2.5 3.4 N, % Diet DM Marini et al.

Glutamine synthetase/glutamate synthase • Glutamine synthetase Glu + NH3 + ATP Gln • Glutmate synthase -ketoglutarate + glutamine + NADPH2 2 Glu High affinity for NH3 - Concentrates NH3 in cells – Uses ATP Because of N recycling this reaction may not be that important Amino Acid Synthesis Ammonia Fixation 2. Glutamic dehydrogenase • -ketoglutarate + NH3 + NADH Glu Low affinity for NH3 – High concentration of enzyme in rumen bacteria – Does not use ATP Probably predominant pathway 3. Other AA can be synthesized by transamination reactions with glutamic acid Estimates of NH3 requirements range from 5 (culture) to 20 mg/100 ml (in situ digestion) Sources of Amino Acids for Host Animal 1. Microbial proteins Quantity determined by: a) Fermentability of the feed b) Quantity of feed consumed c) Nitrogen available to microorganisms 2. Undegraded feed proteins (UIP) Quantity will vary in relation to: a) Degradability of feed proteins b) Quantity of feed proteins consumed Nutritional Value of Microbial Proteins 1996 NRC for Beef Microbial protein 80% digestible in the intestine UIP 80% digestible in the intestine 2001 NRC for Dairy and Level 1 CNCPS Microbial protein 80% digestible in the intestine Digestibility of RUP (UIP) is variable in Dairy NRC UIP 80% digestible in Level 1 CNCPS Metabolizable Protein Model Tissue proteins NH3 Blood urea Urine Amino acid pools Energy A B NH3 Microbial protein Protein Metabolizable protein C Protein from diet Rumen Intestine Feces Protein Metabolism of Ruminants Concept of Metabolizable Protein Metabolizable protein (MP) = Absorbed amino acids or = Digestible fraction of microbial proteins + digestible fraction of undegraded feed proteins Digestible protein (amino acids) available for metabolism Concept is similar to Metabolizable energy Protein Metabolism in the Rumen Less Extensively Degraded Protein Feed Rumen Intestine Microbes Digestion Metabolizable protein Undegraded feed Protein Metabolism in the Rumen Extensively Degraded Protein Feed Rumen Intestine Microbes NH3 Digestion Metabolizable protein Undegraded feed Metabolizable Protein Supply to Host Animal Metabolizable protein (MP): Microorganisms – Digestible proteins Undegraded feed proteins – Digestible proteins Microorganisms g/d = 0.13 (TDN intake, g/d) (0.8) (0.8) Microbes 80% true protein that is 80% digested Feed g/d = (Feed protein) (Portion undegraded) (0.8) Feed proteins 80% digested Absorption of Amino Acids Amino acids and small peptides absorbed by active transport (specific for groups of AA) From intestines Portal blood Transport of amino acids into cells is similar process From blood Cells Active transport, requires energy Utilization of Absorbed Amino Acids Via portal vein to liver • Used for synthesis of proteins in liver • Metabolized (deaminated) - Used for energy – Carbon for glucose • Escape the liver Carried by blood to body tissues • Used for synthesis of tissue proteins, milk, fetal growth, wool • Metabolized - Used for energy Requirements for Absorbed Amino Acids Metabolizable Protein (MP) Protein (amino acid) requirements 1. Maintenance 2. Growth 3. Lactation 4. Pregnancy 5. Wool Protein Metabolism Concept of Net Protein Net protein = protein gained in tissues, milk, or fetal growth = NP Metabolizable protein is used with less than 100% efficiency Net protein = (MP - Metabolic loss) As a quantity, net protein is less than metabolizable protein Net Protein Required for Production Amino Acids Proteins Milk kg/d = (Milk yield, kg/d) (% protein in milk) Growth g/d = SWG (268 - (29.4 (RE/SWG))) SWG = Shrunk weight gain, kg/d RE = Retained energy, Mcal/d RE obtained from net energy equations. Protein Metabolism Metabolic Loss Protein synthesis and metabolism of amino acids draw from the same pool Proteins Amino acids Metabolism • Metabolic loss results from continuous catabolism from amino acid pools • Continuous turnover of tissue proteins adds to amino acid pools in tissues Amino Acid (MP) Requirements Maintenance (three fractions) Protein required to support zero gain or production 1.

Proteins lost from body surface (hair, skin, secretions) = Scurf proteins 3. Proteins lost from undigested digestive secretions and fecal bacteria = Metabolic fecal N
