Among the total gene transcripts that were differentially expressed during daytime six biological processes were found: Wnt signaling pathway, cell junction organization, SMAD binding, regulation of cell morphogenesis, TGF - β signaling pathway, and amino acid synthesis (Fig. 4A).

Sialic acid synthesis is tightly regulated; defects in this pathway cause a variety of disorders, including hereditary inclusion body myopathy (HIBM), sialuria, infantile sialic acid storage disease (ISSD), and Salla disease.

The fat body senses the concentration of intracellular amino acids through the activity of the Target of Rapamycin (TOR) signaling pathway, which in turn regulates the synthesis and secretion of an undescribed humoral factor (s), called the fat - body — derived signal.

Insulin signaling and the general amino acid control response: two distinct pathways to amino acid synthesis and uptake

Additional «- omics» data streams include: transcriptomics, the pattern of RNA synthesis from DNA; proteomics, the distribution of proteins in cells; interactomics, the patterns of protein - protein and protein — nucleic acid interactions; and metabolomics, the nature and traffic patterns of transformations of small molecules by the biochemical pathways active in cells.

This amino acid in particular is regularly used by most bodybuilders looking to perfect their muscle size gains because of its ability to activate the mTOR pathway, one of the two major proteins that drive muscle protein synthesis.

Aging - associated increases in oxidative damage to key enzymes results in their structural deformation and decreased binding affinity for the co-enzyme, causing a decrease in enzyme funtion.8 Ames» research has demonstrated that increasing the availability of acetyl L - carnitine and α - lipoic acid, two nutrients that serve as mitochondrial enzyme co-factors, restores the velocity of the reactions (KM) in the related enzymes, and thus restores aging mitochondria's ability to produce youthful levels of ATP.9 10 11 12 13 Part II focused on the inter-relationships among the folate, methylation and transsulfuration pathways, whose dysfunction results in increased free radical production coupled with disruption of glutathione (GSH) synthesis, thus accelerating mitochondrial decay and aging.

The pathway is found in bacteria, however, and we depend on bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract for digestion and synthesis of essential amino acids.

Although insulin will help to shuttle amino acids into cells, the availability of leucine is shown to be far more important in regulating pathways of protein synthesis [vii].

When there are enough amino acids around, the mTOR pathway jumpstarts the synthesis of new muscle proteins, especially after a resistance workout.

This means particular amino acids not only serve as substrates for protein synthesis but are also modulators of the process as well.2 This has been found to be especially true of the amino acid leucine and it's regulation of the mTOR pathway.

While it is true that amino acids were long considered simply substrates for protein synthesis, they have more recently shown to also act as modulators of intracellular signal transduction pathways that are typically associated with growth - promoting hormones such as insulin and IGF - 1.

Signaling pathways and molecular mechanisms through which branched - chain amino acids mediate translational control of protein synthesis.
