| Research Abstract |
It is suggested that methionine play a signal for protein nutrition and regulates the expression of enzymes of dispensable amino acids synthesis in response to protein nutrition. To adapt for different protein nutrition, consecutive nutritional signal must be required. In addition, the adaptative response of the expression of enzymes to protein nutrition is different in respective organs, suggesting that requirement of dispensable amino acids differ from organ to organ.
