Discover the Latest Advances in Amino Acid Biochemistry and Nutrition

If you’re interested in exploring the fascinating world of amino acids and their significance in human and animal health, look no further than the second edition of “Amino Acids: Biochemistry and Nutrition.” Written by renowned author Guoyao Wu, this comprehensive and extensively updated book delves into the essential aspects of amino acids, providing a wealth of knowledge for both researchers and students in the fields of biomedicine and agriculture.

Unveiling the Fundamentals of Amino Acid Biochemistry and Nutrition

The book commences by elucidating the fundamental chemical concepts of amino acids, peptides, and proteins, as well as their digestion and absorption within the body. Wu then takes readers on a journey through the cell-, tissue-, and species-specific synthesis and breakdown of amino acids and their bioactive metabolites. Furthermore, he explores the use of isotopes to study amino acid metabolism in cells and the broader organism.

Exploring Protein Turnover and Physiological Functions

Protein turnover and the crucial physiological roles of amino acids are the next focal points of Wu’s exploration. He delves into the intricate mechanisms that govern amino acid metabolism regulation and highlights the potential ramifications of inborn errors in these processes. Moreover, the book encapsulates the contemporary understanding of how dietary amino acids and protein intake impact growth, physical performance, and overall health.

Addressing Dietary Requirements and Protein Quality

To ensure a well-rounded perspective, Wu concludes the book by examining the dietary requirements of amino acids in humans and animals. This investigation includes evaluating the quality of dietary proteins and the potential implications of excessive amino acid or protein intakes on various diseases, such as cardiovascular disorders, diabetes, and cancers.
