Grass Silage

SummaryGrass silage was incubated in polyester bags in the rumens of Jersey heifers for 2, 12, 24 and 48 h. The total (D + L) and D-amino acid contents of the silage and of the silage residues remaining after rumen incubation were determined. In addition, the contamination of the silage residues by rumen bacterial protein was measured by using35S as a marker of rumen bacterial protein. The amino acid profile of the residual silage dry matter differed markedly after 2 h of rumen incubation from that of the original silage; thereafter progressive changes in the amino acid composition of the residual silage dry matter occurred between 2 and 48 h of rumen incubation. The D-alanine content of the original silage was higher than that of D-glutamic acid. Both these D-amino acids disappeared almost completely from the silage after 2 h rumen incubation; between 2 and 48 h rumen incubation the quantities of D-alanine and D-glutamic acid in the residual silage dry matter increased. The residual silage dry matter contained more D-glutamic acid than D-alanine and these acids were in a similar proportion to that found in rumen bacteria; thus it was concluded that D-amino acids in the residual silage dry matter resulted from contamination of the residues by rumen bacteria. Contamination of residual silage protein by rumen bacterial protein increased with length of rumen incubation; the extent of contamination was similar for each incubation time whether assessed using35S or D-amino acids as markers of rumen bacterial protein. However, this contamination by rumen bacterial protein did not markedly alter the degradability of silage protein calculated from the disappearance of silage N incubatedin sacco.

Merino Wool

The amino acid composition of 16-hr 6N HCI hydrolysates of three qualities of commercially classified wools has now been determined using the technique of Moore and Stein (1951). In this paper the results obtained on samples of Merino 70's and Corriedale 56's wool are compared with those previously reported for Merino wool of 64's quality. The overall pattern of the amino acid composition of the three wools is similar although small variations between the wools are observed with some of the amino acids.

Selective Retention

Amino acid analyses of mitochondrial membranes are compared with the amino acid composition of whole mitochondria (Alberti, 1964) and found to be very similar except in the cystine content. The composition of the endogenous amino acids found in freshly prepared mitochondria has been established and shown to differ considerably from the amino acid composition of membranes or whole mitochondria. The amino acids produced during anaerobic incubation of mitochondria at pH7.4, on the other hand, resemble the membrane in composition, supporting the view that neutral proteinase activity is responsible for their appearance. Aerobic incubation produces a similar pattern of amino acids except that amino acids such as proline, serine, asparagine, glutamic acid and glutamine, which can be metabolically utilized under aerobic conditions, are present to a smaller extent. The presence of large relative concentrations of endogenous taurine, cysteic acid and oxidized glutathione and the accumulation of taurine during incubation is found. The selective retention of taurine and cysteic acid within the mitochondria is established. It is proposed that the first step in the degeneration of isolated mitochondria results from lipid hydroperoxide accumulation caused by the lack of glutathione reductase in isolated mitochondria.

Soya Bean Meal

1. In a 4 x 4 Latin square experiment four cows were given, twice daily, diets consisting of (g/kg dry matter (DM)) 500 barley, 400 grass silage and 100 soya-bean meal. The diets were given at either 1.15 (L) or 2.3 (H) times maintenance energy requirements and the soya-bean meal was either untreated (U) or formaldehyde (HCH0)-treated (T).2. The passage of digesta to the duodenum was estimated using chromic oxide as a flow marker;35S was used to estimate the amount of microbial protein entering the small intestine. A microbial fraction was prepared by differential centrifugation from duodenal digesta. Samples of bacteria and of protozoa from rumen digesta were also prepared.3. The total amino acid contents of feedingstuffs, duodenal digesta, duodenal microbial material, rumen bacteria and rumen protozoa were determined by ion-exchange chromatography. The D-alanine and D-glutamic acid contents of the samples were determined by gas–liquid chromatography.4. The quantity of each amino acid entering the small intestine was significantly (P < 0,001) increased by increasing DM intake and tended to be increased by formaldehyde-treatment of the soya-bean meal. There were net losses of all amino acids across the forestomachs except for lysine, methione, o-alanine and D-glutamic acid for which there were net gains.5. There were significant (P < 0.05) differences in amino acid composition between rumen bacteria and duodenal microbial material; differences in amino acid composition between rumen bacteria and rumen protozoa were also observed.6. D-Alanine and D-glutamic acid were present in the silage but not in the barley or either of the soya-bean meals. All samples of microbes and digesta contained D-alanine and D-glutamic acid.7. The use of D-ahine and D-glUtamiC acid as markers for microbial nitrogen entering the small intestine was assessed. Estimates of the quantities of microbial N entering the small intestine based on the D-alanine or D-glutamic acid contents of rumen bacteria or duodenal microbes were significantly higher than those determined using 35S as a marker.

AbstractRecently, we designed novel amphipathic cell-penetrating peptides, called WRAP, able to transfer efficiently siRNA molecules into cells. In order to gain more information about the relationship between amino acid composition, nanoparticle formation and cellular internalization of these peptides composed of only three amino acids (leucine, arginine and tryptophan), we performed a structure–activity relationship (SAR) study. First, we compared our WRAP1 and WRAP5 peptides with the C6M1 peptide also composed of the same three amino acids and showing similar behaviors in siRNA transfection. Afterwards, to further define the main determinants in the WRAP activity, we synthesized 13 new WRAP analogues harboring different modifications like the number and location of leucine and arginine residues, the relative location of tryptophan residues, as well as the role of the α-helix formation upon proline insertions within the native WRAP sequence. After having compared the ability of these peptides to form peptide-based nanoparticles (PBNs) using different biophysical methods and to induce a targeted gene silencing in cells, we established the main sequential requirements of the amino acid composition of the WRAP peptide. In addition, upon measuring the WRAP-based siRNA transfection ability into cells compared to several non-peptide transfection agents available on the markets, we confirmed that WRAP peptides induced an equivalent level of targeted gene silencing but in most of the cases with lower cell toxicity as clearly shown in clonogenic assays.

Calibration Equations

Из 20 аминокислот, входящих в состав растительных белков, 17 лучше всего определяются с помощью высокоэффективной жидкостной хроматографии. Но эта технология затратна по времени, в том числе из-за подготовки проб, что делает ее малопригодной при проведении массовых анализов, например при оценке селекционного материала. В этом случае наиболее приемлемы технологии, основанные на сканировании в ближнем инфракрасном диапазоне излучения. Несмотря на то что ИК-сканеры способны по одному калибровочному уравнению выявлять большое количество компонентов, необходима постоянная коррекция при определении состава аминокислот и приведении его в процентное соотношение. В статье рассматриваются варианты создания калибровочных уравнений для расчета аминокислотного состава белков сои с помощью компьютерных программ (Nir 42, ISI), обеспечивающих работу ИК-сканеров типа NIR-4250 или FOSS NIRSystem 5000. Установлено, что при создании калибровочных уравнений содержание каждой аминокислоты наиболее корректно выражать в абсолютных единицах (г на 100 г белка), а не относительных (%). 17 of the 20 amino acids, included in the composition of plant proteins, are most effectively determined using liquid chromatography. The technology of high-performance liquid chromatography is to a certain extent costly in time, among other things because of sample preparation that makes it unsuitable for mass analysis, for example, when evaluating a breeding material. In this case, the technology based on scanning in the near infrared radiation band are the most acceptable. Despite the fact that IR scanners are able to determine a sufficiently large number of components on the basis of one calibration equation, a constant correction is required when determining the composition of amino acids and reducing it to a percentage ratio. The options for creating calibration equations for determining the amino acid composition of soybean proteins for computer programs (Nir 42, ISI), which provide the operation of IR scanners, such as NIR-4250 or FOSS NIRSystem 5000 are considered in the article. It was found that when creating calibration equations, it is most correct to set for each amino acid its mass content (g per 100 g of protein), and not the relative portion (in %).
