Which amino acids are conditionally essential and why?
The conditionally essential amino acids in humans are the amino acids arginine, cysteine, glycine, glutamine, histidine, proline, serine and tyrosine. They are considered conditionally essential, which means they are not normally required in the diet, but must be supplied as a supplement to specific populations that do not synthesize it in adequate amounts. An example would be with the disease phenylketonuria (PKU). Individuals living with PKU must keep their intake of phenylalanine extremely low to prevent mental retardation and other metabolic complications. However, they cannot synthesize tyrosine from phenylalanine, so tyrosine becomes essential in the diet of PKU patients.
