  2. Animal nutrition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_nutrition

    As there is no protein or amino acid storage provision, amino acids must be present in the diet. Excess amino acids are discarded, typically in the urine. For all animals, some amino acids are essential (an animal cannot produce them internally) and some are non-essential (the animal can produce them from other nitrogen-containing compounds). A ...

  3. Knockout mouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knockout_mouse

    Examples of research in which knockout mice have been useful include studying and modeling different kinds of cancer, obesity, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, substance abuse, anxiety, aging and Parkinson's disease. Knockout mice also offer a biological and scientific context in which drugs and other therapies can be developed and tested.

  4. Annual Review of Animal Biosciences - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annual_Review_of_Animal...

    The Annual Review of Animal Biosciences is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Annual Reviews. It releases an annual volume of review articles relevant to the fields of zoology, veterinary medicine, animal husbandry, and conservation biology. It has been in publication since 2013. The co-editors are Harris A. Lewin and R. Michael ...

  5. SNRPN upstream reading frame protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNRPN_upstream_reading...

    This gene encodes a highly basic protein localized to the nucleus. The evolutionarily constrained open reading frame is found on a bicistronic transcript which has a downstream ORF encoding the small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide N.

  6. Feed conversion ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feed_conversion_ratio

    RFI uses for output the difference between actual intake and predicted intake based on an animal's body weight, weight gain, and composition. [8] [9] The outputs portion may be calculated based on weight gained, on the whole animal at sale, or on the dressed product; with milk it may be normalized for fat and protein content. [10]

  7. Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research

    The Center comprises a wide range of expertise and skills within research areas of disease systems biology, proteomics, high throughput protein production and characterisation, chemical biology, disease biology, and protein therapeutics. The Center also contributes to the progress of translational research within medicine and provide ...

  8. Protein Information Resource - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_Information_Resource

    PIR was established in 1984 by the National Biomedical Research Foundation as a resource to assist researchers and customers in the identification and interpretation of protein sequence information. Prior to that, the foundation compiled the first comprehensive collection of macromolecular sequences in the Atlas of Protein Sequence and ...

  9. Biological value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_value

    If a protein source is missing critical EAAs, then its biological value will be low as the missing EAAs form a bottleneck in protein synthesis. For example, if a hypothetical muscle protein requires phenylalanine (an essential amino acid), then this must be provided in the diet for the muscle protein to be produced. If the current protein ...
