Rumen degradable protein (RDP) is feed protein that can be broken down by microbial enzymes in the rumen (neutral pH) where the resulting nitrogen, AA's or peptides are either utilized to meet microbial requirements or if unused, ammonia which is absorbed across the rumen wall and either recycled or excreted. Look up P. J. Van Soest "Nutritional Ecology of the Ruminant" in googlebooks for a more detailed description.
What else can I help you with?
What is bypass protein?
A bypass protein is one used in rumen protein degradation.
Restriction in protein intake will result in?
Protein degradation and muscle breakdown.
Where does protein degradation occur in the body?
Protein degradation occurs in the body primarily in the proteasomes, which are specialized structures within cells responsible for breaking down and recycling proteins that are no longer needed.
What is the functiom of pepsinogen?
Pepsinogen is the precursor for Pepsin, an enzyme for the degradation of protein.
What structures or molecular machines are important for protein degradation in eukaryotes?
proteasome
What is the role of the liver in protein metabolism?
The liver produces the proteins that are secreted into the blood. The liver is responsible for protein metabolism, degradation and synthesis
What are two mechanisms of protein regulation in eukaryote cells?
Two mechanisms of protein regulation in eukaryotic cells are post-translational modifications, such as phosphorylation or glycosylation, that can alter protein activity, stability, or localization. Another mechanism is protein degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome system, which targets proteins for degradation when they are tagged with ubiquitin.
How does Ubiquitin tagging fit into the process of protein degradation?
Ubiquitin tagging allows the 19S subunit of the 26S proteasome to recognize the potential protein substrate.
What is the degradation and synthesis of protein called?
Protein degradation is called proteolysis, which is the breakdown of proteins into amino acids or smaller peptide fragments. Protein synthesis is the process of creating new proteins using the genetic information encoded in DNA through transcription and translation.
How are proteins destroyed and what factors contribute to their degradation?
Proteins are destroyed through a process called proteolysis, where enzymes break down the protein molecules into smaller fragments. Factors that contribute to protein degradation include pH levels, temperature, presence of enzymes, and oxidative stress.
Pancreatic juice contains a wide variety of compounds What is involved in the degradation of carbohydrates?

What process produces protein from rna?
mRNA - translation tRNA- transcription ending with degradation rRNA- trolletion maximum
