Midterm 2 Flashcards
Essential amino acids
Phenylalanine
Valine
Threonine
Tryptophan
Isoleucine
Methionine
Histidine
Leucine
Lysine
Non essential amino acids
alanine aspartic acid asparagine glutamic acid serine
Conditional amino acids (consume during illness or stress)
arginine cysteine glutamine glycine proline tyrosine orthinine serine
complete proteins
all 9 essential amino acids
animal based or soy (tofu, tempeh)
incomplete proteins
missing one or more essential amino acids
plant based
complementary proteins
2 or more incomplete
beans and rice
pasta and beans
PB on bread
endopeptidase
splits at interior peptide bond=get dipeptide or tripeptide
exopeptidases
cleave from end carboyxl or amine group–so you will get a carboxyl or amine peptidase
cleave one amino acid at a time
pepsin, chymotrypsin, trypsin
endopeptidase
carboxypeptidase
aminopeptidase
exopeptidases
enterokinase
bursh boarder enzyme that converts trypsinogen to trypsin
proteolytic enzyme
amino acid and peptide absorption
- Na/K ATPase (primary active co transport)
- Na and amino acids (luminal) co transport (secondary)
- amino acid use carrier protein via facilitated diffusion to get to blood
some of our products are di and tri peptides
- into cell with H+ ions
- converted into amino acids via cytoplasmic peptidases
- facilitated diffusion into blood
No EAR or RDA for
fat
Identifying fats
chain length and presence of double bonds
sat-no double bonds
monounsat-one double bond
polyunsat-many double bonds
omega designation
location of double bond from methyl end of structure
ex: omega 3. 1st double bond is at the 3rd Carbon from methyl end
Saturated fat
not essential because synthesized within the body
associated with CAD and increased LDL
animal and plant based foods
MUFAs
synthesized by body
n-# indicates where the double bond is
ex: oleic acid is 18 carbon with one double bond at 5th carbon so 18:1 (n-5)
animal: beef, pork, poultry
plant: canola, olive, peanut, sunflower oil
PUFAs
18-22 carbons long with first double bond at C3 from methyl end
- omega 6-many essential fatty acids not mad e by body including linoleic acid
- omega 3-only essential fa is alpha linolenic acid
insufficient intake of linolenic acid
scaly skin, dermatitits, poor growth
role: cell membranes, blood clotting, decreased inflamation, enhance brain and joins function, decreased risk of cancer, heart disease, and diabetes
found in: fatty fish, soy, walnutx, flax seed
insufficient intake of linoleic acid
role: growth, development of bone/skin/hair, increased inflammation, regulates brain function,reproductive role
found in: vegetable oils, nuts, grain fed meet
non essential polyunsaturated fat
omega 7: decrease inflammation, insulin resistance–macadamiean uts
omega 9: improve djoin health/healing, decrease inflammation–olive and vegetable oils
cholesterol
important for cellular membrane, precursor for estrogen, testosterone, aldosterone, and bilie acids
No DRI because notessential
<300 mg/day if heart disease family history
phytosterols
2g/d for heart health
wheat germ, bran, peanuts, vegetable oils, almonds
digestion of fat
large fat droplet–bile salts emulsify to smaller fat droplets
lipases have more SA to digest lipid into monoglyceride and fatty acids
