2. Branched-chain amino acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branched-chain_amino_acid

   A branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) is an amino acid having an aliphatic side-chain with a branch (a central carbon atom bound to three or more carbon atoms). Among the proteinogenic amino acids , there are three BCAAs: leucine , isoleucine , and valine . [ 1 ]

3. Central nervous system fatigue - Wikipedia

   The transport mechanism for tryptophan is shared with the branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), leucine, isoleucine, and valine. During extended exercise, BCAAs are consumed for skeletal muscle contraction, allowing for greater transport of tryptophan across the blood–brain barrier.

4. Purine nucleotide cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purine_nucleotide_cycle

   Interaction between branched-chain amino acids and the purine nucleotide cycle in muscles. Fumarate, produced from the purine nucleotide cycle, is an intermediate of TCA cycle and enters the mitochondria by converting into malate and utilizing the malate shuttle where it is converted into oxaloacetic acid (OAA).

   Amino acids are the chemical building blocks of protein. They're found in protein-rich foods, or there are specific supplements such as branched-chain amino acids and essential amino acids.

6. Cahill cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cahill_cycle

   The Cahill cycle, also known as the alanine cycle or glucose-alanine cycle, [1] is the series of reactions in which amino groups and carbons from muscle are transported to the liver. [2] It is quite similar to the Cori cycle in the cycling of nutrients between skeletal muscle and the liver. [ 1 ]

7. Sports nutrition - Wikipedia

   Typically, high-glycemic-index carbohydrates are preferred for their ability to rapidly raise blood glucose levels. For the purpose of protein synthesis, protein or individual amino acids are ingested as well. Branched-chain amino acids are important since they are most responsible for the synthesis of protein. According to Lemon et al. (1995 ...
