Protein Utilization can be determined by figuring out the dietary protein intake and then measuring nitrogen excretion.

Yes, amino acid pool can be used to determine protein utilization. By measuring the levels of different amino acids in the pool before and after protein intake, researchers can assess how efficiently the body is using the dietary protein for various biological processes, such as protein synthesis or energy production. This approach provides valuable information about protein metabolism and nutrient utilization in the body.

BV (Biologic Value)- measures its efffectiveness in supporting the body's needs. NPU (Net Protein Utilization- also measures how capably a protein is used by the body. The difference is that NPU measures retention of food nitrogen consumed while BV measures food nitrogen absorbed.
The first protein structure to be determined was myoglobin, in 1958. Myoglobin is a heme-containing protein found in muscle cells which stores oxygen. Its structure was determined by John Kendrew and colleagues using X-ray crystallography.
The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the mRNA, and this is determined by the sequence of nucleotide bases in the DNA.

In the interprandial state, plasma glucose concentrations are determined by hepatic glucose production and peripheral glucose utilization.
The primary structure of a protein is determined by the sequence of amino acids in the protein chain. This sequence is encoded by the gene corresponding to that protein. It plays a crucial role in determining the higher-order structures and biological functions of the protein.
